  • My name is Kate Leary and I am the Science teacher for Team Achieve at LCMS.
     
    I have worked in the Jefferson City School District since 2000. I taught 7th grade Science at Lewis and Clark Middle School for 16 years and also did one year of mentoring for two teachers through the University of Missouri's Fellows Program. From 2017-2023, I worked at Thomas Jefferson Middle School as the Instructional Coach, and I enjoyed my time with all the great teachers and students at TJMS. However, I am super excited to be back at LC!!
     
    I earned my Bachelor of Science degree at Michigan State University, my Master of Science degree from Boise State University, and my teaching certification from Lincoln University. In 2010, I became a National Board Certified Teacher in Early Adolescent Science.
     
    Away from school, I enjoy time with my family. My husband, Alan, is a biologist for the Missouri Department of Conservation. Our son, Zach, is a senior at Mizzou and is working toward becoming a Physician's Assistant. Our daughter, Cassie, will be a freshman at Missouri State University and is going to study Elementary Education. We also have an awesome, 12-year-old Brittany and an 11-month old Brittany. Both dogs are my husband's hunting companions and all-around hilarious family pets!
