Hi!  My name is Heather Kruse.  I have been a teacher at Lyndale Elementary since 1994.  I have taught grades 3, 4, 5, and 6.  I enjoy teaching the upper elementary grades.  The kids have great spunk and every year I learn a great deal from them and the texts we read.

I live in Stillwater with my husband, Tim, and our four children, who range in age from 4 - 15.  For fun we like to participate in sports, go on bike rides, go on walks, go sledding, and read books.

I grew up in Bloomington, MN and went to college at St. Cloud State University.  I received my Masters in Education in Curriculum and Instruction through St. Thomas.
