Greetings! My name is Kelly Reed and I am an English teacher at Attleboro High School. Although this is my tenth year teaching at AHS, I am starting my first year in the high school's new School Within a School program. This program is aimed at helping at risk ninth graders (those students identified in middle school as having severe attendance, discipline, and/or academic problems) make a successful transition into high school. Our goal is to help all of the forty two students in the program graduate high school in four years. While it is sure to be demanding, I am look forward to the challenge.
On a more personal note, I spend most of my time outside of the classroom attempting to keep my 14 month old son, Malcolm, from plummeting down the stairs, putting foreign objects up his nose, and eating everything that is not tethered down. When Malcolm is safely asleep, I enjoy having some adult non-school related conversation with my husband (who coincidentally is also a teacher at AHS), reading a good zombie story or two, and watching nerdy shows like The Universe (Did you know there are giant alcohol clouds in space?) and MonsterQuest (I believe in you, Nessie!).
