About Me

I have been teaching in the S-O Elementary for many years and I feel very fortunate to be able to have a job that I truly enjoy everyday.  I am married to Daryl Tutje, who also teaches in the S-O School district.  He is a science teacher in the middle school.  I have 2 grown boys, Josh and Eric.  Josh (Principal) and his wife, Molly (FACS teacher) both teach in Colorado Springs with their children, Delta & Lincoln.  My youngest son is currently in Hawaii working as a director at Camp Erdman  I enjoy reading, spending time outdoors, going for long walks, and visiting my children.  A family favorite is hiking in the Rocky Mountains.
