Meet Mrs. Velthuis,

Mrs. Velthuis (pronounced “Vel-tice”) is new to Our Savior Lutheran School / Cross Academy this year.  She holds a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education from Malone College in Canton, Ohio. Her broad teaching experience has been in several Christian schools and substituting in the public school setting.  Most recently, she was a preschool teacher at Evergreen Lutheran School in Seabeck, Washington. Throughout her career, she has consistently fostered a positive and inclusive learning environment to help students feel valued, encouraged, and excited to explore new concepts. In short, she seeks to instill a love of learning!

 

She is a Navy wife and a mom to four adult children – only one of whom lives with them here in Hawaii.  While she has lived on an island before in Puerto Rico, this is her first year living in Hawaii and she is excited to learn more about the beautiful islands and culture. 

 

“I am so excited to be teaching 1st grade at Our Savior Lutheran School/Cross Academy this year! This year we will grow physically, emotionally and academically.  Most importantly, we will grow spiritualy. I can’t wait to meet you and tell you more about my best friend, Jesus!
