Ms. Scott began teaching at Linden in the 2006–2007 school year, although she did substitute a bit the year before when two of her children started at the school. After six years as lead teacher in the Sunflower class, Ms. Scott served as the class teacher for the Class of 2020 from first through eighth grade and for the Class of 2028 from first through third grade.

Before discovering Linden and the Waldorf movement, Ms. Scott taught in private and public school settings as well as at the university level for twenty-eight years, with a year or two off along the way when her children were young. With a BS in Education from the University of Massachusetts, she holds the MEd in Child Study from Tufts University. She also earned her Waldorf teaching certification at Antioch University.

"Over the years, I have explored many an educational path as a professional and as a parent," she says. “I've found the Waldorf curriculum and pedagogy most align with my values and style. I'm honored and inspired, working alongside the dedicated and talented colleagues here at Linden, and love the challenges that each new year brings.”
