Linda Braun
(Grade 3)
After having worked for 10 years in early childhood education, Linda was asked to be the founding lead kindergarten teacher of our school when it opened in 1993; she taught in this capacity through the 1998-99 school year. From 2000-2006, she served as the Children's Education Director of Congregation Chaverim. She is delighted to be back at Waldorf now in the capacity of a grades teacher. Linda began learning about anthroposophy and Waldorf education from her first college roommate, beginning in 1975. She received her Waldorf Kindergarten certification in 1994; this followed her 1979 B.A. in Art and Literature from Johnston College, in Redlands, CA, and an Early Childhood Teaching Certificate in 1982 from the College of St. Catherine, in St. Paul, MN. Linda has raised two wonderful children, now quite grown up, with her beloved husband. Her hobbies include knitting, crocheting, fiction writing, and road cycling.
