Harney Elementary School has been a great stepping stone for me
I'm experiencing a lot and I've grew in every angle of my life
Being employed here helped me to learn how to multitask better (being a leader, parent, social worker, friend, and every other aspect that a child needs in their life)
It helped me to gain more patience
I’ve opened my eyes to different perspectives and many other things that are valuable in life
My duties here were to educate and facilitate the students around me
I was responsible for gathering materials, ensuring the safety of the students, working with the students one on one and in small groups to enrich and remediate students in need and much more
I really loved this job and I felt very fortunate to have the opportunity to work here.
