As a 16-year community member, I am so proud to be a part of the Orting School District.  My family spends our school days on 3 of 4 campuses.  Mr. Fries is Principal of Orting High School, my son is at Orting High School and I have a daughter at Orting Middle School.  One last family member, Izzy, our Brittany Spaniel, spends her days at home eagerly awaiting our return!  We enjoy camping, watching shows that make us laugh and hanging out with friends.  I hope my students end each day feeling valued and cared for-they are my second family!
