Kaleigh Pearson
2nd Grade Teacher
Pathfinder Elementary
My name is Kaleigh Pearson. Recently, I married my husband Desmond. I have a daughter Eliana (7), who will be a second grader and a bonus son, Jayden (6), who will be first grader at Park Hill School District. I also have three crazy dogs: Rolly, Chase, and Emilee. They are all rescue dogs but are completely spoiled now.
I was raised in the Kansas City area and was a graduate of Park Hill High School. I attend Emporia State University after high school and received a degree in Social Sciences, Secondary Education Social Studies and a minor in Ethnic and Gender Studies. During the pandemic I lost my job and decided to go back to school and get my Masters in Elementary Education. I had the privilege of student teaching at Pathfinder and graduated in December of 2022. The following semester became their permanent substitute for the building. I’m excited to start my first year teaching 2nd grade at Pathfinder.
