My name is Karen Holden.  I was born September 8, 1978 in Tacoma, Washington at Madigan Army Hospital.  I lived most of my life in Washington State, except for the three years my mom, dad, sister (older sister Elisabeth) and I lived as missionaries in the Philippines.  I was eight when we moved there.  It was an exciting adventure I usually share in my classroom stories!

Five years ago I moved to Orlando, Florida.  I had just completed my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education at Washington State University (Go Cougs!!) and my parents had moved here to work for the mouse.  I completed my first year of teaching at Celebration K-8 in the 5th grade.  After that I moved to PM Wells Charter Academy and taught 5th grade and 3rd grade.  I moved on from PM Wells to Orange county for a year and a half where I taught 5th grade, and 2nd grade.

When I'm not teaching, I work for the mouse at Typhoon Lagoon.  I enjoy Kyaking and anything outdoors!  I am an avid baseball watcher and root for the Seattle Mariners, and the Boston Red Sox!  Don't get me started about how I feel about the Yankees!
