Hello Second Graders and Families! I am excited to be a part of your Second grade experience. This is my third year teaching at OQS but not my first time working with these great students. I can't wait to keep seeing their amazing growth through learning and becoming wonderful human beings.

Mrs. Lorenz - Speech
Hello Second Graders and Families! This is my 9th year at Ottauquechee! Before that, I worked in FL for 14 years as mostly a 1st grade teacher and then a Speech Language Pathologist. I don’t teach different languages, though. My job includes helping students change speech sounds and decrease stuttering. I also help students use strategies in order to understand what they are learning. That’s what I’m doing in 2nd grade with Reading and Writing skills. I’ll be teaching many students strategies!
Outside of school, I love to sing, spend time with my family and pets, collect shells, and travel.

Ms. Marshall - Occupational Therapist
I love having the opportunity to work with students at the Ottauquechee School and be a member of the strong team of support that wraps around these kids. I have been an Occupational Therapist in the state of Vermont for 12 years. I work within the classrooms and motor room and enjoy empowering students with strategies that enable them to be more independent within the classroom, with their academics, and assist with their strength, motor skills and self regulation.
Outside of school, I am the mother of two little girls, six months and 5 years of age at the start of this school year. My husband and I love being active and outdoors as a family; hiking, biking, skiing and paddle boarding. I enjoy baking, playing with my kids, and reading with them.
