Personal Mission Statement
As an educator, I am dedicated to providing a well-rounded educational foundation for my students, as well as a physically and emotionally safe space for all. I will always encourage self-expression, diversity, social growth and collaboration, and respect among peers. As a firm believer in both Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs and Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences, I will provide new and authentic forms of education while going above and beyond to ensure each student's needs are met. Every child deserves every opportunity to reach his or her full potential, and I will do my part in providing those opportunities.
