Welcome to 4th grade ELAR and Social Studies!

My name is Laura Yarrow and this is my 18th year at Colony Bend Elementary School.  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 starting law school this year. My younger two are twins! My son is finishing his Masters at Purdue University, and his twin sister is at Texas Tech after two years at Bishop's. I'm so proud of them!!

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