Ms. Husgen
Hello! My name is Mrs. Husgen. This is my 11th year at the Otis School and my 24th year with the BPS. Prior to the Otis, I taught Kindergarten at the Bates School in Roslindale. During my years at the Otis, I have enjoyed becoming a part of the East Boston community and have had so many opportunities to watch my students grow up. I am very fond of animals and enjoy reading children fiction and non-fiction animal books and telling them stories about my dog, Beau. Of course, I also love listening to the children’s stories about their interests too! I am excited to begin a new year at the Otis School.

Ms. Trainor
Hello! My name is Julia Trainor, and I have been teaching K2 at the Otis for twelve years. I received my bachelor’s degree as well as my master’s degree from Lesley University. My favorite part of teaching K2 is watching students grow academically and socially. My goal is to provide students with an engaging, fun and safe learning environment where they are able to ask questions, share ideas, and explore new, challenging lessons. When I am not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends and going to Cape Cod. I am looking forward to a wonderful year full of learning and new adventures!
