Elizabeth Lopez joined the Cooper family in 2014 as a preschool teacher. Mrs. Lopez believes in not only accepting, but also appreciating, that each and every child is unique. She also believes that caregivers and families are a child’s first teacher, and that establishing positive relationships with families can be invaluable toward building a solid foundation for children’s learning throughout life. As an early childhood educator, Mrs. Lopez also believes in providing children with a safe, flexible, and encouraging atmosphere at Cooper Dual Language Academy that will allow for optimal development.
Mrs. Lopez received her Bachelor of Science degree from DePaul University. She also earned her Master of Education Degree in Early Childhood from DePaul University. Mrs. Lopez currently lives with her husband, 2 sons, and their 2 dogs. During her free time, she enjoys reading, being involved in Boy Scout activities with her sons, bike-riding, listening to all types of music (especially the type her son plays on his saxophone), and simply spending time with her family.
