I am Mrs. Kurowski.  I have been a teacher for 29 years and have been at Lakeview for 21 years.  I live in Cottonwood with my family.  My husband, Michael, works at SMSU.  My daughter, Kayla, is a band director in Brandon, MN.  Kyle is starting his 3rd year at SDSU to be an engineer.  Ben is an 11th grader who loves soccer, video games, and telling jokes.  We have a 7 year old dog named Loki who likes to play cuddle, chase, tug, and be mischievous!  We also have a 5 year old dog named Luna who loves to watch birds, cuddle and tease Loki.  As a family, we like to spend time together hanging out, playing card games, putting puzzles together, doing escape rooms, supporting each other at sports and music events, and having movie nights.  We also love cheering on the Twins and the Vikings (+1 Commanders fan), along with all our Laker teams.  I have lots of favorites, but two of my absolute favorite things are being a mom and teaching.  Here are a few more favorites:
