Reagan comes to the district from Moberly, where she taught high school social studies classes, including World History, US History, and AP Government and Politics. She earned both her bachelor's degree in history and her master's degree in education from Truman State University. For Reagan, the best part of being in the classroom is seeing how much her students grow in skills and content confidence throughout the year.
Outside of school, she enjoys staying connected with friends and family and continuing her passion for history and social studies.
Audrey is originally from the Palmyra area and comes to Kirksville Schools having served as a substitute teacher, a summer missionary, and a youth minister. She earned her bachelor's degree in exercise science from Truman State and is currently earning her master's in special education through Northwest Missouri State. For Audrey, getting to educate her students is a blessing, and her favorite part of teaching is creating genuine bonds with her class, watching their confidence grow, and seeing those "aha!" moments happen.
Outside of school, Audrey loves spending time with her fiancé, Lane, as they prepare for their upcoming spring wedding.
Tori is originally from Fort Zumwalt and moved to the area to attend Truman State, where she has earned her bachelor’s degree and is currently working toward her master’s. Having previously served as a substitute teacher for Kirksville Schools, she is excited to step into her first official year in the classroom. What Tori loves most about teaching is that no two days are ever the same, giving her opportunities to stay creative and keep learning genuinely engaging.
When she isn't in the classroom or focusing on her studies, Tori loves spending time with family, friends, and her corgi, Trippy.
