Laura Caldwell

6th grade Math, Social Studies

Hello! I am Laura Caldwell, and I’m a member of the 2024-2025 Middle School Champion House: Altruismo!  Some students have known me as "Miss Laura" because I've been their daycare teacher or worked with them as a TA.  I got my bachelor's degree in Searcy, Arkansas (at Harding University), and I've lived in Utah since August of 2011. My favorite color is pink, my favorite chocolate bar is a Twix, my favorite candy is cherry pull-n-peel Twizzlers, and my favorite holiday is Christmas! I have a lot of hobbies including singing, dancing, reading, hiking, watching shows, and swimming. Math is a passion of mine, and I believe everyone is capable of learning successful ways to approach math.  Let's do some math now!  I started teaching at Hawthorn Academy when my daughter went into first grade.  She is going into fifth grade this year (2025-2026), so can you figure out how many years I've been teaching at Hawthorn?  Let's take it up a notch.  My son is going into 8th grade this year.  I started teaching the year before he was born.  Can you figure out how many total years I've been teaching?  How many years was I teaching before I came to Hawthorn?  My goal, as a teacher, is to help my students realize their potential. I believe in them, and I want them to believe in themselves!
