Hello!

My name is Bekka VanOss and I will be your child's second-grade teacher for the 2025 - 2026 school year. This is my sixth year teaching at Turtle Lake. I graduated from the University of Northwestern - St. Paul in 2019 with degrees in Elementary and ESL Education. I spent my first two years teaching 4th grade at TL and am thrilled to be teaching 2nd grade again this year!

My husband, Ben, and I live in Coon Rapids with our 2 year old son, Elliott, and golden retriever, Finley. We are also expecting our second baby boy in early October. In our free time we love to travel, play games, spend time with family and friends, and work on house projects. I have also recently discovered a love for making pottery!

I look forward to meeting you and working with your child this year! Please don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or concerns.

Kindly,

Bekka VanOss
