2010-2011 Residency
Teaching at Smith Elementary, 1st Grade
Lindsay was born and raised in Lakewood, CO and graduated from Boston University in 2009 with a double major in English and Religion. She then spent a year teaching preschool in Missoula, MT. She chose the Denver Teacher Residency because she loved the idea of applying theory to practice on a daily basis. The DTR program is great because residents have a team of support including experienced educators from DU, DPS, and all the residents in each cohort. Lindsay loves teaching and being a positive influence in children’s lives. She sees the biggest challenge for urban teachers as bringing all the students up to grade level in order to close the achievement gap.
