Next up on our Staff Spotlight is Mrs. Soulliere! She is one of our Upper Elementary Teachers. Most recently, she taught at Angola Middle School. This is her "Incredible" family! She has three boys; one has graduated from Franciscan University, one is going into his last semester at Purdue and the youngest is a senior at Angola High School. She absolutely loves a good adventure! She has done a half marathon on the Great Wall of China. Last summer she canoed 62 miles in the Atchafalaya Swamp in Louisiana where she saw 316 alligators. Next, she wants to do Rim to Rim of the Grand Canyon. She has been to all 50 states and 7 countries so far. One of the things she is looking forward to this next year is partnering with our Boy Scout Camp to do ecology and STEM experiences. She has been a Boy Scout/ Scouts BSA leader here in Angola since 2005 and absolutely loves Camp Chief Little Turtle and all it has to offer us! We are so lucky to have Mrs. Soulliere as a part of our Pleasant Lake Family!
