Jan Tuma-Christensen
I am a Lincoln native and attended the University of Nebraska where I earned a degree in Elementary Education with an emphasis in early childhood education. Prior to opening The Pines Day School 33 years ago, I taught kindergarten for Lincoln Public Schools. Being an educator for many years has many rewards. The most fulfilling are the connections we make with young children and their families while at the Pines. Those connections come back to each of us in the form of friendships that last way beyond the preschool years. My husband Dave and I have 2 grown children 1 son- in-law and 1 granddaughter. When I am not at school, you can find me outside working with our farm or wildlife rescue animals, digging in my flower gardens or just spending time with family.
