After 11 incredible years, Mrs. Lauren Drescher is leaving ACCEL Middle College to begin a new chapter in an administrative role with the district.

Since the very beginning, Mrs. Drescher has set the gold standard for professionalism and excellence. We started ACCEL together, and I truly cannot imagine the program without her. Her passion and commitment for teaching have shaped the lives of hundreds of young people.

Mrs. Drescher leaves behind a legacy of unforgettable units on dystopian literature, satire, the gothic tradition, and the Hero’s Journey-lessons, epic video projects and presentations that her students will carry with them long after Accel. More importantly, she leaves behind a culture of high expectations and genuine care.

Please join me in wishing Mrs. Drescher all the best in this exciting new venture. If you are a former or current student, parent, or colleague, I invite you to share your favorite ACCEL memory or a message for Mrs. Drescher below. I know she would love to remember the countless moments that made her years in the classroom so special.

Once an ACCEL teacher, always an ACCEL teacher. ❤️ We will miss you-
