Mrs. Andrea Walden
Third Grade

I have taught at Powell for 24 years and I am very excited to be teaching 3rd grade. The curriculum and studnets will provide new challenges for me professionally as well as personally. Teaching provides many rewards at all levels. I hope I have a positive impact on all of my students and that I inspire them to do their best.”

“I have always enjoyed children and can remember in first grade just admiring my teacher and I said I wanted to be one. From that day on, I always said I was going to be a teacher.” She says fourth grade is, “hard, fun, and rewarding!”
