“I love teaching because every day is a new experience. The kids are hilarious; they are so creative and honest. They brighten your day,” said 5th and 6th grade reading teacher Jamie Osterbuhr.
     Osterbuhr graduated from Allison-Bristow. She then went to UNI and graduated with a degree in elementary education and special education.
