Ms. Kelly is going into her 9th year of teaching at Shadow Ridge Middle School. She grew up in Flower Mound and attended LISD schools before heading to college at the University of North Texas. She graduated with her Master of Music degree from Southern Methodist University in 2019. Ms. Kelly firmly believes that she is first a teacher of children and that music is merely the extraordinary content that she has the honor of using to teach, guide, and help students become the best versions of themselves.
