Lori is originally from St. Peter, MN. She earned her Bachelor's Degree from St. Cloud State University. She and her husband John have two grown children and five beautiful grandchildren. She has been teaching for over 30 years and all of them have been here at St. Mary's.

Teaching at St. Mary’s is the most rewarding job. I consider myself blessed to be here working in this Christian environment with the tremendous support of fellow staff and parents. I love the family atmosphere. I continue to learn valuable lessons from my students and thank God for this opportunity
