Let the Beauty Come Out of the Ashes. | Lauren Rice | TEDxABQWomen

The common American is expected to follow a set schedule for education. Public elementary school, middle school, high school, a high SAT score and finally, college. But what happens to those who don’t finish high school the same way everyone else did? Or even at the same time as their other peers? When domestic violence derailed Lauren Rice’s ‘traditional’ education path at the age of 15, she was confused, lost and feeling defeated.

She was homeschooled until high school where her journey of alternate education paths started. Lauren was born in Orange County California and moved to Rio Rancho New Mexico at age 6.
