MEET MS. KAHLER

Hello! My name is Karen Kahler, and I am the 3rd grade teacher at Vibrant Minds Charter School. The scholars all call me Ms. Kahler.

I am half Japanese and was born and raised in Hiroshima, Japan. I attended a K-12 International School there until I moved to California to attend a university. I received my Bachelor's degree in Integrated Educational Studies, Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, and teaching credential from Chapman University. 

I previously taught at another charter school in Anaheim before going to work as Assistant Director for ICON School Management, which is the company that provides back office support for Vibrant Minds. That's how I got to meet and work with Dr. Schroeder! My passion and love for teaching never diminished and I knew I wanted to teach again, which is how I found my way to Vibrant Minds. I am so happy to be here supporting all scholars and sharing my love for learning! I am so excited to work with my class of third graders. 

Outside of the classroom, I love to spend time with my friends and play volleyball. I also enjoy relaxing at home while watching my favorite shows and playing both board games and video games.

Let's make this a great year!

MEET MS. MAHONY

Hi! My name is Hannah Mahony and I am one of the co-teachers for the 3rd grade class. I have been a part of the Vibrant Minds Charter School Community for the past two years as an assistant. This is my first year as a full-time classroom teacher, and I could not be more excited! I received my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education with a focus on Intercultural Studies from Biola University.

Some of my favorite activities include camping, hiking, and climbing. I love traveling and experiencing all of the joy and knowledge that the world around us has to offer. I hope to share this joy with our class of 3rd-grade explorers!

I look forward to learning and growing alongside your scholars. Welcome to 3rd grade!
