A little bit about me

Hi! My name is Lauren and I am currently a freshman at The University of Northern Iowa studying elementary education with a minor in special education. I attended Rock Island High School graduating in the top 10% of my class. I have lots of experience with taking care of kids. I have babysat for family or family friends. In my senior year of high school, I was involved in an internship working in a kindergarten classroom. I enjoyed celebrating their accomplishments and seeing them grow. This led me to want to be a teacher, with the addition of my mom, aunts, and grandparents all being teachers! I would love more experience with working with kids.
