Charlene Kost
Teacher - English Language Learners
Tchr - Latino Consent Decree
My name is Charlene Kost and I grew up in Stillwater, Minnesota. I attended the University of Minnesota at Duluth, where I studied Elementary Education and Spanish. After college, I moved to California where I taught first grade in Fontana Unified School District. After teaching in Fontana for 4 years, I moved back to Minnesota and started teaching in St. Paul. While teaching in St. Paul, I attended the University of Minnesota in the Twin Cities to earn my Master's degree in Second Languages and Cultures and also an ELL teaching license. I am an ELL (English Language Learners) teacher at Wellstone. When I am not teaching, I keep very busy with my two kids and trying to do a few other things that I enjoy. Some of my favorite things to do are travel to different places, learn new things and have exciting experiences.
