Welcome to the new school year, Eagles!

I am originally from Tiffin, Ohio, and twenty years ago, I moved to Columbus to begin my teaching career. (During my first five years at New Albany, you might have known me as Miss Lutz.)  Since 2003, I have taught eleven years of first grade, one year of Kindergarten, and this year will be my eighth year in Reading Intervention.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Heidelberg College (now Heidelberg University) in Tiffin, Ohio with a Bachelor of Science degree in Early Childhood Education (Pre-K-3) in 2003.  In May 2007, I completed my program at the Ashland University branch in Columbus and graduated with my Master’s degree in Literacy.

In August 2008, my husband, Lou, and I were married. We have a ten year old daughter, Lily and a six year old son, Brooks.  It has been an amazing summer together watching them grow! Our family also enjoys cheering on the Buckeyes and the Columbus Crew, visiting the Columbus Zoo, making memories at Disney World and spending time with our family and friends.

I wish you the BEST adventure this year!
