Children’s House Teacher
Karla Wagner, a dedicated Children’s House Teacher, brings a unique blend of musical artistry and educational expertise to her role. Her journey into education and music began in junior high, where she directed her first shows in 4H. This early passion led her to pursue a Bachelor of Science in Music Education at the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis. Her commitment to education deepened through her training with the North American Montessori Center (NAMC), where she specialized in the 3-6 age group and became a certified Montessori guide.
Karla has been with the school since 2011. Her favorite thing about working at a Montessori school is the joy in a child’s face when they figure things out for themselves.
