About Me
My name is Lauren Knapp and I am originally from the small town of Sparta, New Jersey. I moved to North Carolina to attend East Carolina University with my best friend and graduated in 2010 with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education with a concentration in Reading. I stayed in Greenville to begin my teaching career where I got a job teaching third grade. I enjoyed third grade, but wanted to pursue my passion of working in the primary grades, as I love the idea of helping students become responsible learners. My second year teaching, I had the opportunity to move to first grade. I fell in love with first grade and stayed in Greenville for one more year, but began a search for a new school, as I was looking to move to the Raleigh area for a change of scenery! I was lucky enough to become a part of the Sycamore Creek family and I could not have been more fortunate. I am very happy with my decision to move here as it is an amazing school. In my free time, I love spending time with my family, visiting the beach or the lake, and spending time with my husband, Ryan, our son, Carter, and our dog, Cooper! I am excited about starting a new year in second grade and look forward to teaching your children!
