Meet the new staff members joining the team at Turtle Lake Schools! 🤩

Today, we are excited to introduce...
⭐️ Briana Clarkson ⭐️

Briana will be joining our district as a Reading Interventionist! 📚

Ms. Clarkson is most excited about getting to know our students and their families and building meaningful relationships with them. This school year also marks an exciting new chapter for her as she steps into a new role after spending the past 10 years as a classroom teacher and library media specialist. She is looking forward to bringing the experiences from both of those roles to her new position and learning alongside her students! 🫶

When she’s not at school, Ms. Clarkson loves spending time with her family. She and her husband have a 2-year-old son and a 4-year-old daughter, so life at home is always busy and full of fun! ❤️

🏰 A fun fact about Ms. Clarkson: She loves Disney movies and songs! One of her favorite things to do is sing and dance along to all the songs with her kids!

We are so excited to have Ms. Clarkson join the Laker family! Welcome to Turtle Lake Schools! 💛🐢❤️

Please help us send a warm Laker welcome to the new staff members joining the Laker Team this school year! Each day this week, we will be introducing and celebrating a new staff member who will be joining the team here at Turtle Lake Schools! 🫶🎉

We begin with...⭐️ Christopher Bulding ⭐️
Christopher will be joining our district as a Band and 3–5 General Music Teacher! 🎶

Mr. Bulding is most excited to begin his first year as a teacher and looks forward to working with our incredible and supportive staff!

When he’s not making music, you can probably find Mr. Bulding in the kitchen! His favorite hobby is cooking, and while he may not consider himself an expert, his from-scratch lasagna has certainly gotten some attention from those lucky enough to try it! 🍝👨‍🍳

🦛 A fun fact about Mr. Bulding: He attended Hutto High School in Texas, which has the unique distinction of being the only school in the country with a hippo as its mascot!

We are so excited to have Mr. Bulding join the Laker family! Welcome to Turtle Lake Schools! 💛🐢❤️

Earlier this summer, the Turtle Lake Theater and Music Summer School class presented their production of... 🍦 RATTLE MY ICE CREAM 🍦

This was a fun way for our students to get involved with the arts, step out of their comfort zones, and take center stage in this fun stage play. 🎭👏

In case you missed the live performance, a video of the production now exists on YouTube and is ready for you to watch! Enjoy the show, Lakers! 🤩❤️
