Mrs. Katie Flynn

Fifth Grade Teacher

Professional Background:  I earned my Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education from Miami University in Oxford, Ohio and my Master's in Reading and Language from Sonoma State University.  I began my career in education teaching third grade in Hudson, Ohio. I then taught sixth grade at Del Mar Middle School in Tiburon for 10 years.  Upon moving to Truckee, I taught eighth grade at Alder Creek Middle School and then fourth grade before joining the Truckee Elementary fifth grade staff.  

Interests: When I’m not in Room P8, I love to spend my free time on the trails in Tahoe Donner.  When there’s dirt, I love to trail run and when there’s snow, I am addicted to Nordic skiing.  My other outdoor interests are mountain biking, downhill skiing, hiking, and backpacking. When inside, my hobbies are reading and making photo albums. I also spend a lot of time cheering my kids on in their various activities. They play football, ice hockey and  lacrosse. Finally, since I grew up in Pittsburgh, PA I’m a big Steeler and Penguin fan!
