Welcome to Mrs. Keller’s very best class.

 I wanted to take a few moments to introduce myself. 

I am Andrea Keller.  This is my fourth year at Stipes and it is my fifth year in Irving.  I have now taught special education for 7 years.

I grew up in Canyon, Texas (very close to Amarillo)  My wonderful parents still live in Canyon and have recently bought a local bookstore.  I have a younger sister who also lives in Canyon.  I am married to a wonderful classically trained Executive Chef.  We have two dogs.  Our collie is Wolfgang and our Jack Russell terrier is Ladybug.  We also have a Sun Conure Parrot and his name is Basil.  I love volunteering!  For the past two years I have been the Co-Service Unit Manager of the Irving Girl Scouts.  I have been involved in Girl Scouts since I was in kindergarten (over 20 years) I have also walked in the Breast Cancer 3-Day.  This year I will be volunteering as a crew member for the 3 Day.  I am also going to try my hand at Destination Imagination at our school.  I am currently working on my masters in educational technology.  I have also had a chance to present at several conferences.  2 years ago I was so lucky to be honored as Stipes PTA Lifetime Member.  It was a huge honor to represent Stipes.  I am very excited to be working with your child this year.  Please feel free to call or email me at akeller@irvingisd.net.
