Hello everyone! My name is Kelly Thomas and I am delighted to welcome you and your family to 2^nd grade at Colony Meadows Elementary. As a native Houstonian and Fort Bend ISD alumnus, it is an honor to be a part of the Tiger community. After receiving my degree from Texas State University, I taught in Clear Creek, Houston, and Katy as well as in an international school located in Porto Alegre, Brazil. I love to travel, cook, and dance. Moreover, I love sharing those passions with my students and learning about theirs as well. Another passion of mine is reading instruction. I hold a master’s degree in Reading and Language Arts Instruction from Sam Houston State University. As a firm believer that developing a lifelong love of reading can change a person’s life, I strive to foster that enjoyment of reading in each of my students. I am thrilled to start the upcoming school year with you all and please know that I am always available via email or phone to answer any questions or concerns that arise.
