Welcome to 4th grade ELAR and Social Studies!

My name is Laura Yarrow and I have been teaching at Colony Bend Elementary School since 2005.  I was born in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, and grew up in Wilton, Connecticut.  I graduated from Bishop's University in Lennoxville, Quebec, and earned a master's degree from Fairfield University in Fairfield, Connecticut. Before I had children, I taught for three years at the Greenwich Japanese School, and two years in seventh grade ELA at Central Middle School in Greenwich, Connecticut.  After I had my three children, I stayed home until they were all in school.  That's when I joined Colony Bend Elementary.  I taught special education for seven years, in PPCD and BIC. Since then, I have been teaching in third, fourth, and fifth grade. I love my job!

I have three fantastic children. My oldest is in law school. My younger two are twins! My son is a software engineer in Dallas, and his twin sister lives in Colorado and is a Behavior Specialist. I'm so proud of them!!

I love teaching, and I'm so happy to be part of the Colony Bend family! Go Eagles!
