My name is Kathryn Land and I currently serve the students and families of Colham Ferry as a special education preschool parapro. I received my B.A. in psychology from UGA in 1995 and my M.Ed. in Guidance and Counseling in 1997. After working for several years as a counselor in various outpatient, inpatient, and long-term residential treatment settings with families and children, as well as a college advisor and adjunct instructor in psychology at Truett McConnell, I returned home in 2005 to raise my 2 children. I decided to return to the workforce in 2021 with Oconee County Schools in order to help young children and be part of a system that values the importance of early intervention. My husband Byron and I have been married since 1998, and together we have a son in college and a daughter in high school. We are active members in our local church where I have volunteered in the preschool ministry since 2008. I am so thankful to be a part of this wonderful community and school system!
