Hello! My name is Linnea Beader. I am so excited to join East Maine District 63 this year! I am supporting Gemini Middle School and Apollo Elementary. I have loved working with children and families as an occupational therapist for the past 14 years. I have supported students in the school setting in some capacity throughout my career. I have also worked in pediatric therapy clinics, early intervention, and preschool. I attended the University of Minnesota and received an undergraduate degree in Kinesiology and a graduate degree in Occupational Therapy. I love getting to know my students and discovering what excites and engages them. Most of my free time is spent going on random adventures with my three year old daughter.
