2010-2011 Residency Teaching at Green Valley Ranch Elementary, 3rd Grade
As a proud graduate from George Washington High School, Lauren knows that is her time to give back to her community. After spending two years as a paraprofessional at McMeen Elementary School and teaching a literacy after-school program at Bruce Randolph School, she realized that she had a desire to become a classroom teacher. Lauren chose the Denver Teacher Residency because it stood out as a top program among Denver educational programs, was very hands-on, and gave her the opportunity to work alongside a mentor teacher. By working alongside some of the district’s most successful teachers, she has been able to address challenges such as how to close the achievement gap and increase the graduation rate, ultimately making DPS one of the best school districts in the nation.
