Ms. Patterson is an amazing part of the Laurel Ridge team! She puts her students needs first and makes sure they all know how much she cares about them and the people they will become. Ms. Patterson knows students strengths and needs in great detail and fits learning to best suit each student. Her high expectations always push students to do their best. She is a wonderful teacher to work with and learn from! 🦁

Mrs. Levin is able to understand a student’s struggles with communication and create a safe environment where they feel comfortable. Students love to work with her. They get upset when it is not their day to work with her. She always adapts and changes course when a certain method isn’t working, finding a new and different way to reach the students’ needs. She immediately develops a friendly rapport and makes every student feel at ease. 🦁

Next week we are celebrating the military-connected students, staff, and families at Laurel Ridge. Join us in a spirit week to show support for our families who serve! 🦁
