I am beginning my 30th year at NRHEG. I have taught both 5th and 6th grade. I am currently teaching 6th grade in New Richland. I teach one section of both Reading and Math, and 3 sections of Minnesota History. I teach Driver's Education to the New Richland side. I am the Asst. coach of the Varsity Football team and have been the Head coach of the boys and girls track teams for the past 29 years. My wife (Amy) and I have 4 sons: Dalen, Evan, Kellen, and Mason. We enjoy attending Country Fest every summer and traveling. We live in New Richland.

Hi, my name is Kari Olson. I started teaching 6th grade at NRHEG in 2012. I used to be Ms. McNeil but got married since working here. After getting married, I moved with my husband to a small town in Iowa and this summer we had our first baby. I grew up in Eagan, MN and graduated from Northwestern College in Iowa with my teaching degree. I got my Master's Degree in K-12 Reading through MNSU-Mankato. I currently teach reading, math, and language arts.
