Meet Our Kindergarten Teacher, Mrs. Brooke McKinnon
A member of Trinity Lutheran Church since her childhood, Trinity Lutheran School welcomed Mrs. Brooke McKinnon as our Kindergarten teacher in 2010. Her experience in Early Childhood programs coupled with her background in building engaging classroom communities graces our young children’s own experiences in the Elementary School.
Mrs. McKinnon holds both her Bachelors and Masters of Arts in Education from the University of Florida, and is credentialed with Florida Professional Teacher certification with endorsements in Reading and ESOL (English as a Second Language instruction). Mrs. McKinnon furthered her preparation for service at Trinity by completing theological studies at Concordia University in Chicago, and is valued as a Commissioned Minister of the Lutheran Church.
