December 2022 Teacher of the Month 

In cooperation with the Mayor's office and City Council, the Rotary Club of Okla. City recognizes an outstanding teacher in our community. 

Lauren Yount is a Sixth and Seventh Grade Science and AVID teacher at Classen School of Advanced Studies Middle School, where she has developed her philosophy of creating equitable classrooms where both students and teachers are valued.  Lauren has acquired a Masters of Education in Teaching English as a Second Language from the University of Central Oklahoma, a Masters of Education in Higher Education from the University of Oklahoma and a Bachelors of Arts in Applied Communication from Oklahoma Baptist University. She also became dually certified in early childhood and elementary education in 2015 and has since gained experience teaching various grades including Kindergarten, Second Grade, Fifth Grade, and now Sixth and Seventh Grade.

Lauren truly believes that when a student knows they are supported by a teacher not only in the classroom but in all aspects of their life, it can greatly improve the student-teacher relationship and she considers it her responsibility to her students to meet them where they are by providing a space where they know they are enough, where they can make mistakes, ask questions and learn together without fear of judgment.   
Congratulations, Lauren!

Rotary Dues Increase - Jan. 1, 2023 - A Message from President Wes 

Dear Fellow Rotarians, 

At the Sept. 27 lunch meeting, we shared some news about a conversation that began over two years ago. Prior to the pandemic, it was clear to our administration committee, budget committee, and board of officers and directors that a dues increase would be necessary for the club to maintain a balanced budget. With the arrival of the pandemic, we were able to delay that conversation. As we’ve seen a return to normal club operations, meetings, and service, we’ve also seen an increase in almost every expense of the club due to inflation and we were forced to revisit the conversation. At the recommendation of our administration and budget committees, the 2021-2022 board of officers and directors approved a dues increase of $15 per quarter, or $5 a month, effective January 1, 2023.   READ MORE
