Our last retiree to celebrate is a familiar face to the Lowell community - Mrs. Zagorski!
Maria began her teaching career at St. Mary's in Waukesha before her 32 years of service at Lowell Elementary School! While at Lowell, Mrs. Zagorski has taught 4K, kindergarten, and second grade.
Maria's advice to whoever takes over her classroom is, "Be happy every day. Bring joy and laughter to the classroom. Allow mistakes to be made and think about what the children need the most. Smile at every child every day. Take time to hear each child's voice every day. Have fun with these little people!"
