I have yet had the pleasure of meeting Mrs. Berrios but I am certainly looking forward to it. When that day arrives, I have these choice words for her:Thank you. I couldn’t care less about what did or didn’t transpire at her former school. What I do care about is my daughter who is currently a student in her class. Due in large part to the tone and standards Mrs. Berrios set for her students at the beginning of the term, my oldest is experiencing (by far) her best school year to date.In the past, my daughter has struggled as a ‘C’ student. This year has been entirely different. She is showing much more interest and pride in her work. She’s on pace for her first honor roll, and the day-to-day teachings in Mrs. Berrios class consistently come up at home as points of interest and highlights of my daughter’s school day.This teacher has my child energized, inspired and engaged in her work and this has transcended to her other classes. I see evidence that my daughter is learning how to better approach her schoolwork and I believe she’s forming habits that are going to serve her well in the academic years to come. Again, I cannot wait to meet her… and my wife and I cannot thank her enough.

I am a colleague of Lauren Berrios. I have observed her teach on numerous occasions. Lauren is an incredible teacher; dedicated, intelligent, caring and compassionate in her instructional approach. Students and faculty respect her professionalism. Lauren is meticuluous in her appearance and always dresses appropriately. She is NOT a witch.

I thought I might add that I was accused of being a witch when I taught in a rural mountain school for very similar reasons. (For example, I had students read a historical novel called THE WITCH OF BLACKBIRD POND.) A small part of the community assumed that because I taught about Salem Witch Trials, didn’t belong to a church, lived alone, and “visited San Francisco frequently” that (therefore!) I must be a witch. Fortunately my principal was extremely supportive and actually threatened to take the accuser to court if she didn’t stop – but it was a very uncomfortable time. I could write a book…..
