Summary

I´m an enthusiastic educator with extensive experiences at St. Francis De Sales Catholic School. I have a strong sense of our mission here at SFDS, I´m passionate about planting seeds of the Gospel in the young hearts of our students, guiding them towards a deeper understanding of their faith and how it informs our actions and decisions. I´ve excelled in lesson planning and student engagement and behavior management, from several different teaching jobs over the years. I believe I´ve proven to have the ability to foster inclusive learning environments and develop effective curriculum. I´m skilled in Google Classroom and dedicated to promoting teamwork and collaboration among students. I´m an organized and

dependable candidate successful at managing multiple priorities with a positive attitude, with the willingness to take on added responsibilities to meet team goals. Given the opportunity; I´d love to be the next principal of St. Francis de Sales school.
