Team Lead
Mrs. Anastasia Kadado
Welcome to 2nd grade! I earned both my Bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies with ESL and my Master’s degree in Education from the University of North Texas—Go Eagles!
I am married to my college sweetheart, James, and together we have two wonderful children, Emma and John. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy staying active, trying new recipes, and spending time with my family whenever possible.
I have been proud to call Gulledge home since 2016 and look forward to another great year of learning and growing with our students.

Mrs. Jodi Leonard
I have been married to my husband, Bill, for 27 years. We have two beautiful daughters, Macy (23) and Carly (20). We miss our girls like crazy, but are embracing traveling on our "Empty Nester Freedom Tour"! The littlest Leonards are our two dogs, Pippa and Tate!
This is my 17th year teaching and my 13th in Plano ISD. I taught first grade for 14 years and second grade for 3 years. I am excited to begin my third year at Gulledge with another awesome class of super second graders. I have a special place in my heart for little learners and I am thrilled to bond with a new group of little Gators!

Ms. Kelsey Thompson
Hi there! I am Ms. Thompson, originally from Tulsa, Oklahoma, but now proud to call Texas home. I graduated from the University of Oklahoma with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Psychology, and I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus in ESL. In my free time, I love traveling, spending time with family and friends, working out, going on walks, and cheering on the Oklahoma Sooners.
This is my fourth year of teaching, all here at Gulledge, and I love being part of such a caring community. Second grade is a fun and exciting time where students grow and learn every day. I am passionate about making learning enjoyable and creating a classroom where every child feels safe and confident. I am excited for a wonderful year in second grade!

Miss Tracy Pham
I love spending my time with family, friends, and trying new things. Some of my favorite hobbies are reading, yoga, traveling, shopping, and cooking. Some things I love are animals, music, food, art, flowers, and my students of course!
I am so happy to be a 2nd grade teacher at Gulledge! I love being able to help my students grow, spending time with them, and giving them all of my support. I love being able to do this in such a loving and inclusive environment as well.
