    Excerpt from Teacher of the Year application
    To me, teaching is important because:

    “Success isn’t just about what you accomplish in your life; it’s about what you inspire others to do.”- unknown

    Teaching to me, is most importantly about inspiring others to do their best.  It’s about establishing relationships and trust that extends beyond a school year.  It’s about creating life-long learners and responsible citizens for the future of our world.  It’s about fostering a community of collaborators comfortable and equip with 21st century skills.  Teaching is the foundation of our future and to me will always be apart of what I do and who I am.
