Hello and welcome to my website! My name is Katie Jurgensen. I was born and raised in Sioux Falls. I attended The University of South Dakota and earned my degree in Elementary and Special Education. I graduated with my Master's Degree in K-12 Multicategorical Special Education. This will be my 10th year at BVHS and has been my home since I entered the teaching field having student taught in the district and filled in as a long-term substitute in the special education department.

I come from a very close family of five and am the baby of the family. I have an older brother and sister who both live in Sioux Falls. I have a two nieces, Isabella and Samara, and a brand new baby nephew, Jaxson. They have brought much joy to the family and are true blessings in my life! I got engaged on Christmas Day and will be getting married on June 14th so am a very busy woman!!

I am a huge Minnesota Vikings and Twins fan. I love spending time outdoors and camping in the summer. I love to travel and had the opportunity to go to Jamaica this past summer.
