Hi! My name is Heather Lorenzen and I am the art teacher at New River. I graduated from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor's in Fine Arts and I am certified to teach art in Prekindergarten through 12th grade. I've been teaching art for over 15 years. I've worked as an art teacher at the elementary, middle, and high school level at other school districts and venues before teaching at New River. I feel that these teaching experiences gave me a lot of knowledge on how to modify art lessons for every age group.  I am so excited about continuing my work at New River and being your child's art teacher! Please call me if you have any questions (623) 376-3500 extension 63452 or email Heather.Lorenzen@dvusd.org.
