Who is Ms. Tinker?

Hi there, my name is Lauren Tinker and I am thrilled to be working with your child this year! This is my second year at Hutchinson and my thirteenth year of teaching.   I graduated from The University of Northern Colorado with a bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and have the Gifted and Talented PRAXIS under my belt.   I love teaching and helping my students gain a deeper understanding of new concepts.

Outside of the classroom I love to spend time with my family! My daughter Oakley is 6 and son Sullivan is 4. My family and I live in Littleton and have a very energetic dog named Tipo (a golden doodle).   In my free time, I like to read, cook, play tennis, and go on adventures.  I also try to spend as much time as possible with family and friends.

I am looking forward to getting to know you and feel that even though this school year will be awesome! I can’t wait for a year full of opportunities for you to learn, explore, develop new skills, make new friends, demonstrate your resilience, and most importantly, have fun. I know that together, we will make this a successful year. I am excited to see you all very soon!
