Our Leadership

Corinne Weaver,  Principal

 

Education:

  • Central Michigan University –  Bachelor's of Science in Education
  • Eastern Michigan University – Master's of Arts - Common Learnings in Curriculum
  • I am currently working on an additional Master’s Degree in Educational Leadership through Central Michigan University.

Previous Education Experience:

I have been in the field of education since 1991 where I worked for a private Christian school teaching 3rd and 4th grades in Clarkston, Michigan until 2002 when I moved to Linden Charter Academy. 

​

What do you like most about working here?

I love the students and the families at Linden.  Having been here for as long as I have, I have built relationships with so many different families and still have students return to visit and update me on how they are doing.  I also love the staff.  We are a true family through and through.

 

 Personal:

I am married and have three boys of my own and one dog.  In my free time I like to golf and knit, neither of which am I very good at, but I enjoy them none the less.  I also enjoy camping and the outdoors.

Previous Education Experience:

What do you like most about working here?

I love the family feel that you get the second you walk in the door.  You know that everyone is embracing and using the CKH approach not only with the students but also with the staff.  It is a feeling that you just don’t get everywhere.
