Hi Lawrence families! I'm Katie Orpet and I am an art teacher here at Lawrence Elementary. I grew up in the foothills outside of Denver, attended Jeffco schools as a student, and now have been a Jeffco educator for about 7 years in all. I live in Arvada with my husband, my puppy, and our 3 chickens. When I am not teaching, you can find me making pottery, walking my dog, or enjoying outdoor activities such as paddleboarding, hiking, and camping. I'm looking forward to a new school year of creativity and fun!

Hello Lawrence Community! I have been an Art Teacher for 24 years. I work at Fremont Elementary and Lawrence. I was born and raised in Lakewood, CO and live in Arvada with my 3 kids and my husband. My favorite things are my pets (a cat and a dog) and my flower garden. I enjoy painting and creating art projects in my spare time. I also love to hike and bike ride. I am working on hiking all of the Colorado 14'ers, but I still have a long way to go !  I am fascinated by machines and work on car rebuilds with my husband. It is really a pleasure to teach Art to all the students at our school. I have a fun job!
