In 2005, Avalon School was introduced to Regina Goldner. She was enthusiastic about math, thought the co-op model was a great fit for her, and was ready share her love of project-based learning with everyone. Regina moved from Seattle, WA to Minnesota back in 2000, ready to make the world a better place; little did she know that teaching was going to be the way she would change the world. She had just graduated from Fairhaven College with a concentration in Environmental and Social Justice and didn’t even think she liked the youth of America. Now, years later, she is proud of her Masters in Education from the University of Minnesota and knows that teaching is the job of her dreams and Avalon the school which she loves.
When Regina is not teaching, she is busy with a variety of hobbies. She is continuously writing and drawing a graphic novel and painting a picture or two when needing a break. She loves cooking and learning about cooking. Regina also is known to be in a couple of bands. These musical endeavors are loud, and keep her busy on the weekends.
She also likes maintaining a garden and running with her dog around Como Lake. She is honored to be an advisor at Avalon School, and thinks of Avalon as her second home.
