Hello! I am Kelli Ainsworth and I am from Bellevue, Nebraska. In December of 2014, I received my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from the University of Nebraska - Lincoln.  I began teaching 4th grade in August of 2015 and stayed in that position for 5 years.  In December of 2017 I received my Masters Degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Peru State College. In the summer of 2020, I moved here to Mississippi with my husband.  I taught 3rd grade for one year and am excited to be back in 4th grade this year. I am thrilled to be joining the Back Bay community and can't wait to create a loving environment for learning and growing in ELA for my students.
