Nurse's Office
My name is Meredith Lippe and I am the full time nurse at Walnut Grove Elementary. I have been a nurse for 15 years, however this will be my first year at WGES. I am so excited to be serving the community in this new role! My husband Ben and I have two dragons that attend Walnut Grove, Palmer and Emma. Palmer is entering 2nd grade and Emma will be starting Kindergarten.
I grew up in Charleston, South Carolina and I love anything to do with the beach, boating, and fried green tomatoes. I also enjoy playing tennis and watching my daughters in ballet.
My name is Katie Hargrove. I am the part-time nurse at Walnut Grove. This is my fourth year working at Walnut Grove. My husband Matt and I have four Dragons.

Fun Fact: We’ve lived in St. louis, Chicago, Boston, Wisconsin, London and Riga (Latvia). Each one of our children were born in a different state or country. My husband served in the military and we were able to experience many cultures.
Weekends: During the weekend we spend our family time on the soccer field. All of our children play club level. An average weekend is 12 soccer games! I also enjoy long walks, yoga, and quiet time with my coffee!
