Hello and welcome to O'Rourke Elementary!  My name is Laura Parris and I am the counselor for grades 3-5.   This is my 15th year in education; 7 teaching 3rd grade here and 8 as a counselor. 

I am originally from Huntsville, AL.  I moved to Mobile to attend USA in 2002 and have now made Mobile my home.  I have two children, Paige (7) and Clayton (5) with my husband Matt.  I enjoy reading, running, going to the beach and spending time with my family and friends. 

I look forward to another wonderful year at O'Rourke!  Please let me know if I can help you or your child in any way.
