She attended the schools in the Blue Valley District with her brothers, Paul and Albert, and sister, Alice. She graduated from Burlington High School in 1923. She attended Colorado State Teachers College for one year, then taught in the country schools north of Burlington to earn money so she could return to college for another year, where she received a Lifetime Teaching License.
