Mrs. K was a beloved teacher, mentor, friend and leader at Horace Mann Elementary School for over 30 years. She deeply cherished her time at Glendale Unified School District, her esteemed colleagues, vibrant students and devoted parents. She took great pride in her classroom and the excellence of her students, leaving a profound and lasting impact on many lives.

In accordance with her wishes and in lieu of flowers, contributions in her memory are welcomed to establish a memorial scholarship for the students she had yet to teach.

Please revisit this page as the family sorts and uploads over 40 years of student photos Mrs. K documented and meticulously maintained.

'True teachers use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross. Then, having facilitated their crossing - joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create bridges of their own.'
