Hi, my name is Lora Peterson. I am one of the Paraprofessionals at North Metro Flex Academy. I have absolutely loved being given the joy of working with your children. I am originally from New Jersey. I moved to Minnesota over 20 years ago, looking for a fresh start in the Midwest. What I found was my calling in childcare and teaching. I have been working with children of all ages for over 26 years.
When not working with my kiddos, I am happiest when I am raising Monarch Butterflies. During their months, it’s not unusual for me to have about ten of the little buggers chomping away on leaves in my butterfly enclosures. When not doing that, you can find me smiling my biggest just being outside with my significant other, enjoying the short but beautiful Minnesota summers!
