Laurel Beeken

I was born and raised in Boulder. For my junior year of high school I chose to spend the year studying abroad in France. Upon returning home and graduating from Boulder High, I spent a year studying and learning Spanish in Spain and Costa Rica. Once back home again, I attended Colorado State in Ft. Collins where I graduated with a BA in French.  After some time working as a translator and interpreter, I chose to return to school to get my teaching license. I began teaching French here at Skyline in 2007. Since then, I have completed my Master's in ESL and have truly enjoyed my time here at SHS. I take trips to France with students every few years and love seeing my students use the language they have learned!
