Linda Reid, Sr. Director, Programs & Partnerships

Linda Reid is a joyful educator who loves teaching and learning in ways that nurture, inspire, and challenge. She believes everyone has genius and the primary job of educators is to recognize the sparks of genius in others and ignite their passion for learning.

She is grateful for a wide and wonderful range of experiences throughout her career; starting as a public school teacher specializing in Gifted and Talented, Special Education, and elementary education in Florida, Connecticut and Georgia. She has had the honor of creating a differentiated new teacher induction program as well as an alternate route to certification program as a public school district HR coordinator, and served as a clinical supervisor for a university Exceptional Child/Elementary Education dual degree program before diving in to the nonprofit space. She is committed to high quality, research-based program and curriculum design, professional learning, and educational leadership.

Linda holds a BS in Special Education and MA in Educational Psychology. She loves museums, all things space, and spending time with her family and friends.
