Maren Jorgensen – Knapp Elementary, 2nd Grade

I grew up in Davenport, Iowa and have been in the Denver Area for the past seven years. My work as a dishwasher in an elementary school in Guatemala, as well as my most recent volunteer job with homeless families in Denver sparked my new passion to teach second language learners. I cannot wait to be in the middle of the classroom environment as the learning process unfolds for me and my students.
