CCSD has hired our first graduate who completed her degree through the TPRA (Teacher and Paraeducator Registered Apprenticeship) Program. She will be a Strategist I: Mild/Moderate Teacher at Eagle Heights.
Lauren shared: "I feel very blessed to have been given this opportunity! Going through this program has assisted me with purchasing textbooks and has covered the entirety of the cost for schooling. Without this opportunity I most likely would not have gone back to school after getting my first bachelor's degree in 2020. This has truly been a full circle experience as I am working within schools that I attended as a student alongside the amazing teachers that I was lucky enough to be taught by. I am thrilled to be on this journey and I cannot wait to positively impact my students now and in the future in my position at Eagle Heights!"
