About Mrs. Knudtsen
Welcome to our classroom! Like you I was a student in the Auburn School district attending Chinook Elementary, Olympic Jr. High and Auburn High School. I earned by Degree in Elementary Education from Western Washington State University and Received my Masters in Curriculum/ Instruction and Administration from Gonzaga. I did my student teaching at Lakeview Elementary. I have taught in the Auburn School District since 1992. During my career I have taught 4th, 5th, and 6th grades as well as being the Language Arts Specialist at Ilalko for 6 years and taught the self-contained K-2 class for 3 years at Ilalko before moving up to Lakeland Hills. My husband, Dr. Jere Knudtsen is also a teacher. He teaches instrumental music at Pierce College. When we are not teaching we enjoy spending our time together with our Great Danes. We attend many dog shows around the Pacific Northwest and surrounding states and BC Canada.

About Mrs. Bonham
My name is Kelsey Bonham and I am excited to also teach in fourth grade this year. Last year I taught in a job share position in 2nd grade and will continue that job this year as well. I recieved my K-12 teaching degree, with a major in Reading, from Eastern Washington University in 1997 and completed my Masters in Teaching in 2003 from Grand Canyon University. I taught 3rd and 4th grade in the Federal Way School District for 7 years before deciding to stay home and raise my three children. I look forward to working with your family this year.
