Catherine Lein

2nd Grade Teacher
Compass Elementary

Hi! I'm Catherine Lein, and I’m so excited to be joining the Platte County School District! I’ve spent the last 5 years teaching in St. Joe, and I’m looking forward to bringing my love of learning, creativity, and connection to my new classroom. I’m originally from Hannibal, Missouri, and while it’s not exactly next door, I’ve always felt at home in close-knit communities like this one.

Outside of school, I love spending time outdoors, reading a good book, and hanging out with  my very awkward but lovable yellow lab, Boone. I’m passionate about making learning meaningful, engaging, and filled with kindness- I can’t wait to get to know my students and their families as we grow together this school year!
