Staff Profile

Hello, 

My name is Lynnea Rice and I have been teaching over 20 years. I began my teaching career in Washington, DC public schools and moved back home to Minnesota to be closer to family. I live in St. Paul with my partner, two children, two cats, and one dog. Both of my children attend Horace Mann. 

I received an undergrad degree in Early Childhood Studies from the University of Minnesota-Duluth and a graduate degree in literacy from Concordia St. Paul. 

I have wanted to be a kindergarten teacher since my first day of kindergarten. My goal is to teach young children to love school and learning. School is a place to feel safe, learn, and have fun! I found a way to turn my love of playing into a career...lucky me!
