Lauren Alvarez
I am so excited to welcome you and your child to our classroom! I cannot wait to get this year started and begin building our classroom community together.
Our first three days will be all about getting comfortable in our classroom. We will spend time getting to know one another, practicing our routines and procedures, and most importantly—having fun together! These first few days help us create a classroom where everyone feels safe, supported, and ready to learn.
As a reminder, my classroom website is a great resource for staying connected and knowing what is happening in our classroom. You can find important updates, upcoming events, and helpful information throughout the year. Once we begin switching for skills groups, the website will also include your child’s skills group information so you can stay updated on what they are working on.
A few reminders for the start of the year:
- Please send your child with 2 snacks each day.
- Please make sure your child brings a water bottle.
- Please send headphones/earbuds that can stay at school for classroom use.
I am so excited for this year and all the learning, growth, and memories we will make together. Thank you for sharing your child with me—I can’t wait to get started!

I’m so grateful to be part of the AVA community! This is my sixth year of teaching and my fifth year here at AVA. I truly love this school, our students, and the amazing families I get to work with every day. I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Elementary Education from the University of Northern Colorado. Teaching is my passion, and being in the classroom with your children is genuinely my happy place! I care deeply about your child’s well-being and am committed to creating a learning environment where every student can thrive. I’m here to partner with you to support your student’s success—please never hesitate to reach out.
I’m looking forward to the BRIGHTEST year yet!
