Mrs. Kimberly O'Brien

Raised in rural Iowa, I graduated from a small school with just 120 students in my class. Surrounded by a family of educators-my father and many relatives-the value of education was instilled in me from an early age.  I have known for as long as I can remember that I wanted to work with children, and that passion led me from an early age. I've known for as long as I can remember that I wanted to work with children, and that passion led me to work with children, and that passion led me to the University of Nebraska, where I earned a double major in Elementary Education and Early Childhood Education. 

Over 30 years ago, I moved to Houston to complete my student teaching and have proudly dedicated my career to teaching kindergarten and Pre-K ever since. I find deep joy in helping young children build a strong foundation for lifelong learning.

Outside the classroom, I'm an avid Nebraska Cornhuskers football fan and love spending time with my husband and our three daughters.
