Kim Dahle
Counseling Secretary/Registrar
Hello, my name is Kim Dahle and I am excited to be back at SPA. I have worked in education for over 16 years all on a High School level.
I have been married to Chad for 25 years and have two grown boys, Tyson and Jake. I have a dog named Willow and my cat, Luna.
I am a self-proclaimed urban farmer. I am very proud of my amazing flower and vegetable gardens, I keep chickens and honey bees.
I enjoy growing and storing and cooking my own food.
Simply put I love the outdoors, from yard work to camping, to sitting on the beach.
I am excited to be here again with all these amazing people. SPA is home!
