Elizabeth Dawson
I graduated from Boston College undergraduate. I received a Masters in Elementary Education from Columbia Teacher's College in New York. I just returned to UCD to work on my Educational Specialist Degree.
I love being part of a community of learning. I love the excitement and engagement of a truly student-centered learning environment. I love working with all children, parents, and teachers as we challenge ourselves to be successful. I love learning something new every day. I believe that every child is a learner and deserves the highest quality education.
I live right here in Lafayette with my partner, my three dogs, and one cat. Our Sanchez Community is also my extended family. Thank you for such a warm welcome.
I love teaching and learning about people. It makes me happy every day. I love singing, reading, writing, skating and skiing. When I can, I love to be by the water. I love taking a walk around Waneka Lake and watching the sunset over the Mountains.
