About Mrs. Lawler

Hello, my name is Judy Lawler, and I have been working with children for over 25 years. I moved to Terre Haute when I was ten and have lived in the same neighborhood ever since.

I love being a mom of 2 wonderful sons. My oldest, Scott, has a beautiful wife, Cassidy. They welcomed their first child into the world on January 9th of 2023. His name is Lance Michael Lawler. I am over the moon with excitement to finally be a GRANDMA! He has been an absolute delight.

My son, Joey, was at one time my 3rd-grade student, but now he is my son, and he brings me such joy! He will be a sophomore at South and loves playing on the tennis team. We had a golden retriever named Duke who passed away the last week of school. He was one of the best dogs I have ever had, and I still miss him. We also have a chocolate lab named Marley. Our old PE teacher, Mr. Lonneman, helped me put a Koi pond in my backyard. I have over 60 koi in it. Some of them are HUGE! I really like spending time taking care of them. They have fun personalities!

I LOVE READING, MATH, and SCIENCE. Being a good reader is the key to success in EVERY subject! We have reading contests in our classroom, with the most popular one being based on college basketball’s “March Madness.” I am a huge fan of sports but especially tennis and basketball. I also strongly support the students knowing their math facts. I have had many students return and thank me for “making them” learn their facts. 

My class is responsible for one box turtle that lives in our courtyard.   Finally, we adopted Hermit Crabs last year. The students will be responsible for the caretaking of our pets. They will all fill out job applications for me to choose the best applicants for each job. We will change jobs throughout the year so that everyone can have the opportunity to experience different responsibilities.

I am looking forward to a GREAT YEAR in the 4th GRADE!
