Kathy Gilbertsen
6th Grade Team
Welcome to Sixth Grade! This is my thirteenth year teaching at McKeel Academy Central, and it is my sixteenth year being part of the McKeel family. I attended Florida Southern College and earned my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education K-6.
I am thrilled to be teaching sixth grade this year! I have taught first grade for ten years. In addition, I have taught second grade and Kindergarten. I look forward to getting to know each of you and your children this year. To make this a successful year, we will become a partnership in working together to give your child the best education. My goal for this year is for each of your children to have a great year of learning and growth. I believe if we work together we can be the BEST!
