2010-2011 Residency Teaching at DCIS at Ford Elementary, 1st Grade
Sarah comes to Denver Teacher Residency from the non-profit field. After facilitating high school mentoring programs in Denver Public Schools through Goodwill Industries Youth Services and several years of volunteer with at-risk youth, Sarah realized that she wanted to become an elementary school teacher to help students reach their highest potential.
Sarah found that Denver Teaching Residency provided the opportunity to become a licensed teacher focused on the specific needs of students in Denver Public Schools. She completed her residency year at Archuleta Elementary and in her first few months of teaching already credits the program for spending a lot of time reflecting and reaching out to her former mentor teacher for support. Sarah is already enjoying working in an urban school district and providing students with the opportunity to have a quality education, particularly meeting the challenge of impacting students who have not had high expectations set for them in the past.
