Daniela Uriarte dreams of becoming a Denver elementary school teacher, but her DACA status puts her future in limbo.
Recess at Denver’s Castro Elementary School took on a sobering tone as Daniela Uriarte and her fellow fifth-graders gathered to discuss the subject weighing on their young minds: whether a middle school enrollment lottery would secure them a spot at a prestigious junior high that could change the trajectory of their lives.
Uriarte grew up in Denver’s Westwood, a predominantly Latino, working-class neighborhood. Born in Mexico and with a father who joined the workforce before completing school, education meant everything to Uriarte and her parents, who came to this country illegally in search of a greater life for their children.
But Uriarte’s future once again hinges on circumstances outside of her control. She’s a beneficiary of the legal protections provided under the federal government’s, or DACA, program — the future of which is in doubt as courts weigh its legality. Called to the field that guided Uriarte on her path to success, the December graduate hopes to put her elementary education degree with a concentration in culturally and linguistically diverse studies to good use in Colorado, but DACA’s ultimate fate could put her future as a teacher in jeopardy.
