Technology Teacher K-6 

Mrs. Alyssa Fries

I am so excited to be teaching technology at OLP this year.  I received my B.S. degree in Elementary Education at Kansas State University (GO CATS!!!) and my Master's degree in Educational Technology from MidAmerica Nazarene.  I previously taught 2nd and 3rd grade for 7 years in the Shawnee Mission School District.  For the last 6 years I have been a substitute teacher for K-6 classrooms in the Lees Summit School District.

I have been married 19 years to my wonderful husband, Jeff.  We have two daughters, Ella who is 15 and Olivia is 12 years old.  We also have an adorable and spoiled dog named Buddy.  While my husband and I are both from the Kansas City area and we have called Lees Summit home for the past 6 years, we also lived in Melbourne, FL for 4 years.  Yes, we miss the beach, and of course, Disney, but we are happy to be in the Midwest closer to family.  Currently, you will find me at a swim meet, volleyball court, marching band performance, musical, or in the car headed to one of those locations every evening or weekend it seems!

I look forward to working with all of the OLP kiddos in the lab this year.
