About me
When you meet Kelly Maxwell, one of the first things you will hear her talk about is how skills have changed her life personally and as a teacher. Recently retired after 32 years as an elementary school teacher, Kelly is excited to share her story about how SILA Skills came to fruition following her challenging journey with her son’s mental illness. Her presentations are filled with relatable stories where participants gain practical tools they can use personally right away and in their classroom the next school day. People who attend Kelly’s sessions often comment on how much they enjoy her style of presenting and how her stories help them understand how hope can be found in difficult times. She is looking forward to sharing them at this year's Teachers' Convention .
