This is my sixth year teaching for Henry B. Burkland Elementary School! My students know me as Mrs. Donovan or Ms. Wheeler (maiden name)! My family and friends know me as Kate, Katie, Katelyn or WHEELS.
I have always loved working with children and creating art. I grew up in a family of teachers and with a mother who is now a retired art teacher. I always say, it's in my blood.
I received my Masters degree in Art Education from Boston University, and my bachelors degree from Bridgewater State University!
In my spare time I LOVE to be with my daughter! She is THREE! I also work on D.I.Y projects as well as my personal hobby of creating images with seed beads and painting. I sell my artwork in local galleries, online and at local craft fairs.
Throughout the summer I work with my own small company called Finders Keepers! We make lots of fun things including custom cornhole boards!
My favorite activity outside of school: playing with my two pups, my daughter and my husband! I have oneGerman shepherd named Dutchess and we just rescued our newest puppy, Cal who is a black lab/hound mix.
I am excited to share news with you on this site to keep you connected to what we are doing in the art room. Stay tuned for important updates, websites, and pictures!
