Welcome to Pre-K at Lincoln Academy! My name is Miss Kunau (like UNO cards). I am a Colorado native and was raised in Arvada. For undergrad, I attended Grand Canyon University in Phoenix, AZ, and finished with a degree in Early Childhood Education. After my brief stay in Arizona, I returned to Colorado to pursue my teaching career. I was overjoyed to get hired at Lincoln Academy after being a student here, myself! I have been teaching at Lincoln since 2016 and I have loved being a part of this community.  I love being outdoors, drinking coffee, and shopping at Target and Amazon. I am a firm but loving teacher who cares deeply for my students. I have a passion for young learners and I am so excited about this school year!

Brenda Guenther is joining the PreK team this year for her fifth year at Lincoln Academy.

She has stepped into many different roles around Lincoln Academy, such as Educational Assistant, DSS team, Substitute Teacher, and Program Director for Leopard Care. She is a mom of two boys that attend Lincoln Academy as well, one in 6th grade and one in PreK. She is very excited about being a part of an amazing team and working with our littlest Leopards to help them learn and grow!
