Please help us give a warm welcome to our next new teacher feature, Mrs. Kasey Eden!
About Mrs. Eden: "Hello! My name is Kasey Eden, and I am the new 8th Grade ELA teacher at Willow Springs Middle School. I grew up in West Plains and graduated as a Zizzer in 2017. I then received my English Education degree from Evangel University in 2021 and taught at Seymour High School for two years. When I'm not teaching, my favorite things to do are drink coffee, hangout with my husband and cat, read, and go on walks. I am thrilled to now be a Willow Springs Bear and am loving every minute!"
