Mrs. Cahill

My name is Diane Cahill and I have been working for the LPSD since 1997. When I started, I first taught in second grade. Shortly after coming to the Washington in 2002, I chose to move into kindergarten, where I plan on staying until I retire! My husband and I have two boys that also attended Lowell Public Schools. In the winter, you may see us in local hockey rinks and in the summer we'll be on the beach.

Mrs. Cahill teaches in Room 101 and is assisted by Ms. Cote.
