About Lyndie
I am an 8th grade United States history teacher.
I have been teaching middle school since the Fall of 2001. It is a very rewarding job that is never boring. History is an exciting subject. My grand mother loved history and as a child my parents would take us on vacations to learn about our nation's history.
Thankfully many of my former students have become friends, and those friendships continue to grow.
Volunteerism
I was in Girl Scouts for 15 years and had my own Brownie troop as a high school student. . I am a Chico State graduate and a proud alumni of a local sorority, Alpha Chi, that was founded in 1918 by knitting socks for service men during WWI. I was on my sorority's alumni board from 2001 until 2019. I served several terms on the HOA board when I owned a townhouse. I am passionate about giving back to the community.
Kirkland
I love animals. I share this cat, Kirkland, with my parents. He travels between our homes. We rescued him in November of 2018. We named him Kirkland, after the Costco brand. Yes, we love Costco. He is skittish since he was rescued at two months old and was feral but he likes to play and watch and talk to birds. He knows the phrase, "Kirkland, where are the birds?"
49er Faithful
I have been a fan since I was a little girl. The 49ers won the first Superbowl right before my 4th birthday. My godfather was a groundskeeper at Sierra College so we would go watch their practices. I have a dedicated wall in my classroom filled with paraphernalia and my horse is named Montana after Joe Montana.
A student gave me this football and I waited in line for hours for Joe to autograph it!! It was worth the 5 hour wait.
