Meet Mrs. Kruse
I am so happy to be teaching first grade in the Lennox School District! This year is my eighth year with the district, my thirteenth year teaching first grade overall.
I attended Lennox Elementary School, Lennox High School and college at the University of South Dakota. I majored in Elementary Education with a reading minor. Upon graduating, I decided I would continue my education through the PDC Graduate Program at USD. Through this program, I taught first grade and earned a Master's Degree as a Reading Specialist.
During the 2015-2016 school year, I decided to go back to school again! I had the opportunity to be a part of the PDC Program again, this time as a mentor teacher. I mentored a new first-grade and a new third-grade teacher while working toward my Specialist Degree in Educational Administration.
I am happy to be living in Lennox with my family. My husband, Steve and I have 2 children.
Thank you for taking some time to get to know a little bit about me!
