Personal Background:
Torry received her Early Childhood Degree and Teaching Certificate from EWU this spring. She joined us the summer of 2023 mostly assisting in our preschool classes. She has had a lot of experience working in early childhood situations as she was previously Lead Toddler Teacher and Administrator for 3 years at Ascend the Heights. Torry has been working with children for 10 years and would not want to spend her time working in any other way. Torry, her boyfriend, and mom live in Cheney. Family is very important to her and one of her favorite things to do – spend time with friends and family. Torry also enjoys swimming, painting, coloring, and cooking. Her favorite thing about North Wall is the loving environment. Each and every North Wall teacher has amazing abilities, and their positive attitudes are so refreshing! Torry also loves the children at North Wall and loves watching their lightbulb moments.
