Kristyn LaRochelle

Education
Concord, NH

Kristyn LaRochelle is an elementary school teacher. Last year when the schools switched to remote learning with no advance warning, Ms. LaRochelle made it work! She quickly found a way to make online learning fun for the kids and manageable for the parents (who were trying to work remotely with young children at home). In September when the new school year began, we were thrilled to learn that Mrs. LaRochelle would be moving up to Second Grade with her class from last year. Mrs. LaRochelle has provided a calm stability for her students. She has high expectations for them and their work. However, she has also knows that kids this age needed to have some fun! She has spent hours after school with the kids building forts in the woods, perfecting chalk art, and making slime! Mrs. LaRochelle has worked tirelessly to make sure that her students had a great schoolyear, despite all of the challenges in the world today. Mrs. LaRochelle is our SHEro!!
