Hello! My name is Heather Rinke. I am originally from Wheaton, Minnesota. I received my degree in Early Childhood Education from SMSU in 2006. I taught preschool for 13 years. I also received a masters in Early Childhood Special Education from Minnesota State University, Mankato in 2022. This will be my third-year teaching ECSE. This will be my 8th year teaching in the Lakeview School District. In my spare time I like to spend time with my family and friends. My favorite part of teaching early childhood is being the first steppingstone in children's educational journey. I enjoy getting the opportunity to help each child on an individual basis and I love to see the light turn on when they have been struggling. It is great to spend time with each child getting to know them and their families. I am looking forward to another awesome year.
