Kelsey Prakken is in her 9th year as history teacher and educator, having taught throughout New England and outside of Baltimore, Maryland. She graduated from Franklin & Marshall College with a B.A. in both History and Anthropology with a minor in Classics, and an M.A.T. in Secondary Social Studies Education from Johns Hopkins University. She has teaching licenses in 5-12 English and History. This is her 3rd year at Innovation Academy Charter School where she has been fortunate enough to teach Global Studies, Ancient Rome, Ancient Civilizations and American Studies. Kelsey is extremely passionate about learning history through storytelling, as well as exploring historical narratives and their varying perspectives in order to piece together the “truth” about what has happened in the past. When she is not being a historical Indiana Jones detective, Kelsey enjoys reading, skiing, and exploring new places.
