About the Teacher

NAME: Lori Lange

SCHOOL: Bethany Lutheran

CLASS: 1st Grade

SCHOOL PHONE: 562-420-7783 extension 43


     I was born and raised in a small farming community in northeast 
Nebraska.  I earned my BS in Elementary Education from Concordia University 
in Seward, Nebraska. I have an English concentration and an art minor. My 
first call was to Bethany Lutheran in Long Beach in 1991. I went on to meet 
my husband, Bob, at Bethany.  We have been blessed with four wonderful 
children:  Joshua, Jacob, Andrew and Alyssa.

     After spending several years at home with my children, I'm back to first 
grade!  My goal as a first grade teacher is to develop a love for reading in 
each student.  I hope to encourage each child to realize that God loves them 
and has a special plan for their life. I am grateful to have a career that I 
love.
