Hello everyone! My name is Ms. Laserna, or Ms. L for short. I teach Algebra 1, Geometry, and Pre-Calculus. I like math because it is always constant; while the world can be chaotically changing at times, math is always structured with rules that never change. I am especially passionate about equity and social justice through education. In my free time, you can find me embroidering, playing the piano, or fostering rescue dogs.

Dr. Merriman began her teaching career at Dorsey in 2014 where she became apart of the Law and Public Services Magnet, now known as the Sports Medicine and Law Magnet. Since 2014, she has expanded our sports medicine program in the past 5 years by acquiring over half a million dollars in funding, providing the most innovative technology for her Patient Care Pathway students and improving the quality of care to her student-athletes. In partnership with the Team HEAL foundation, Dr. Merriman also provides athletic training services to Dorsey’s athletes after teaching during the day. She works closely with our school nurse, Pat Noble, to provide the highest quality of healthcare possible to our student-athletes.
