The posts in this section of my 610 blog will relate to my evolving convictions on why I am an educator. I acknowledge that these ideas may change over the course of my career, but the below statements, I feel, are the core undercurrents of my educational leadership platform.
I believe all students and teachers must be supported in achieving high standards.
I believe teachers are facilitators of learning.
I believe classrooms need to be centered around students' needs and these needs will change year to year.
I believe learning needs to be developmentally appropriate and that this looks different for each child since children develop differently.
I believe all students should be equipped with the skills needed to choose their own path in this world.
I believe that learning looks different for each student and for each concept of focus.
I believe students need teachers to support, not just their academic learning, but their social-emotional learning as well.
I teach because I enjoy helping students realize and actualize their own potential.
I teach because I enjoy empowering students to take an active role in their education.
I teach because I have an opinion on what I believe high-quality education looks like in public schools.
I teach because I want to instill curiosity and inquisitiveness in my students.
I teach because it is in my blood.
