Lauren Conley

I am a passionate elementary teacher who strives to create an inclusive environment which gives all students the opportunity to achieve academic success . Students learn best when their emotional needs are met and they feel safe in the classroom. I am committed to forming strong relationships with all students and supporting their academic and personal growth. I work to develop creative and engaging lessons that foster a love for learning by using innovative teaching strategies. Each student has the right to accessible, supportive, and challenging learning experiences. As an educator, I welcome the opportunity to learn from students, colleagues, parents, and the community.
