Hello, there! My name is Lauren Belden and I am SO excited to be teaching English I/Pre-AP here at MacArthur High School! This will  be my fifth year teaching and my first year at Mac, and I am just so happy to be a Brahma! 

A little bit about me-I grew up here in San Antonio where I attended Clark High School and then earned my degree in Youth and Community Studies from the University of Texas (hook 'em!). I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have two children ages 9 and 6 who attend school in the district. I am passionate about public education and am thrilled to have the opportunity to welcome your kiddos to Mac!
