Kathy Runyan

Kathy has been involved in education in one way or another since earning a Bachelor's degree in Human Services from California State University at Fullerton. Kathy taught pre-Kindergarten and 1st Grade for 6 years prior to homeschooling her own 3 sons for 10 years using a self-directed learning model.  Throughout those years Kathy also volunteered as a teacher and coordinator of children and teen programs in local and regional Quaker meetings. Kathy's ideas of relaxation include reading, walking, gardening, camping, drawing and hiking. However, more than anything, she enjoys just hanging out with friends or family for a nice chat over a cup of tea.
