My name is Lauren Cummings and I am orginally from Winona, MS. I graduated from the University of Mississippi in 2006, with a Bachelors Degree in Social Work and again in 2009 with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education. I am licensed to teach Kindergarten through sixth grade in Mississippi and Special Education. This will be my eleventh year teaching at Greenbrook Elementary School. I taught first grade for seven years and three years in kindergarten. This is my first year teaching inclusion in kindergarten. I have a Masters in Curriculum and Instruction through Arkansas State University and am a National Board Certified teacher.
I am a proud mom to my 2 year old daughter Blakely and my two Morkie fur babies, Baylin and Mila. I have always enjoyed working with children. Having had some great teachers growing up, they inspired me to follow in their footsteps and become an inspirational leader, life-long learner, and a dedicated educator. Over the years, I have had many jobs, but nothing as been as rewarding as becoming a teacher.
As your child's inclusion teacher it is my will to provide educational excellence for all of my students, to attain the highest level of student achievement, to provide a caring, safe, and orderly classroom, and to strive for continuous improvement.
"The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you'll go" Dr. Seuss
