🎉 Please help us welcome Heather Coleman to the Waubun team! 🎉
You may have already met Heather toward the end of last semester, as she joined us in April. Heather is one of the first friendly faces you'll see when you walk through our doors, serving as Waubun's Administrative Assistant and Secretary. She also provides support for Waubun's Athletic Director.
A few fun facts about Heather:
🎨 She is an artist who loves all things creative, from digital design to hands-on studio art and crafts.
✈️ She loves traveling and is always looking forward to her next adventure.
🌮🍣 Her favorite foods are tied between sushi and Mexican cuisine.
☕ She can't resist a good cup of coffee or tea!
⭐ Although she now calls Minnesota home, Heather originally made the move here all the way from Texas in late 2024!
Heather has quickly become a friendly face in our office, and we're excited to officially introduce her to our school community.
When you see Heather around the school, be sure to say hello and help us give her a warm Thunderbird welcome! 💙

To help us get to know Katie, she shared with us a little bit about herself. Katie is married and is the mother of two beautiful little girls. She says that when she is not working, you can usually find her nose deep in her Kindle and drinking her 3rd cup of coffee!! Katie is excited to be joining Ogema, and we wish her all the best in her new role!
After serving as principal of our elementary school, Mrs. Johnson now steps into this leadership role, bringing with her a strong commitment to our students, staff, families, and community.
We're excited for this next chapter and look forward to all that lies ahead. Please help us congratulate Mrs. Johnson and wish her the very best as she begins this new role! 🩵🖤
