Hi! My name is Linda Knoll and I am very excited to begin my sixth school year at St. John Paul II School working in learning support services. I work with students who need additional instructional support. I graduated from Saint Louis University in 1996 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Education and History. I am certified in Indiana and Missouri to teach Social Studies (grades 5-12.) I also earned a Master of Arts degree in Information Science and Learning Technologies from the University of Missouri in 2001. I taught high school world history and geography for 4 years and worked as a high school librarian for 4 years at a Catholic girls school in St. Louis. In 2016, my family and I moved from Missouri to Indiana for my husband's work. We enrolled our three children, James (11th grade at Providence), Henry (9th grade at Providence), and Tess (6th grade) at St. John Paul II School in 2016. In Jan. 2017, I began teaching in the learning support services department at St. John Paul II School. In my spare time, I enjoy visiting amusement parks, swimming, reading, music, cooking, baking, camping, traveling, and spending time with my family. I feel blessed to be a part of the St. John Paul II School and parish community.
