Profile

Kristy MacLean has been in education for over 20 years. Her past experience includes not only serving as a Digital Learning Coach and resource teacher but also 18 years teaching 4th grade. She absolutely loves the 4th grade curriculum and being able to help children really blossom academically. Kristy has also worked to develop writing programs for several school districts and independent writing companies. She has led professional development trainings on how to intergrade Thinking Maps across curriculum. She earned her Bachelor of Arts, Multiple Subject Credential, and Masters in Education with an emphasis in Reading at California State University, Fullerton.

Mrs. MacLean and her family attend Saddleback Church. Her favorite Bible verse is Jeremiah 29:11, “For I have plans for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you a future and hope.” This verse is special to her because it was the first verse her daughter remembered. It reminds her family how God is in control.

In her spare time, Mrs. MacLean loves spending time with her husband, Brian, daughters, Riley and Logan, and dog, Scout. They enjoy soccer, camping, hiking, going to the mountains, playing at the beach, surfing, and doing anything sporty. She also likes to bake and read.

Mrs. MacLean is beyond grateful for the opportunity to do what she loves, working with children, for a living.
