All About Ms. Beitz!

Hello! My name is Katie Beitz and this is my second year teaching at Turtle Lake! I graduated from St. Mary's University with my degree in Elementary Education. I grew up in Blaine and currently live in Ham Lake with my family! This will be my third year teaching overall. I taught 3rd grade my first year teaching, and 4th grade this past year. I'm so excited to return to 3rd grade this year!

Some fun facts about me; I love being outdoors and in the water. I have been swimming competitively since I was 13 years old! I swam for both Blaine High School and St. Mary's University of MN and continue to compete in summer triathlons and run 5k's with my best friends! On the weekends you'll find me relaxing with my closest friends or family, drinking coffee while reading a book outside, or hiking a trail with my two dogs, Lucy and Cooper!

Some of my favorite things happen to be Sloth's, The Minnesota Timberwolves, Water Bottle Stickers, Chipotle, Coffee, and Dark Chocolate (:
