Welcome to Mrs. Collins, Early Childhood Page!  I have been a special education teacher for the past 31 years as a resource teacher, transition kindergarten teacher and an early childhood special education teacher.  My husband and I have one daughter who is a senior at the University of Missouri.  We have been married for 26 years and live in Kansas City, Missouri.

Mrs. Mary Veselic
I began my career in the state schools for one year. I then worked in the geriatric rehabilitation setting for 7 years before moving to the school setting which is where my passion and heart lie. I work towards improving the communication skills of all kids so they can achieve success in their daily lives and be whatever they want when they grow up! My husband and I, along with our two daughters, live in the Smithville community.
