I had the pleasure of finding Orchard Valley in April of 2005. I was a stay-at-home mom, and decided I wanted to find a good place for my 18 month old son to start school. When we found Orchard Valley, I saw that they were hiring teachers. It seemed like a good fit for both my son and me, so I enrolled Dave and applied for myself. I thought I was applying for a temporary job, and would move on once my son finished kindergarten. Instead of just a job, I found a home. My co-workers are some of the most amazing people and teachers that I’ve ever met, and I consider myself privileged to work for the amazing administration team at OVLC. I’ve grown as a mom, a teacher, and a person since coming to work here, and count these last ten years as some of the most amazing in my professional life. Here’s to ten–maybe twenty–more!
