Philosophy of Education: My instructional philosophy is to grow the hearts and minds of future ready leaders and to build and sustain positive relationships. I am a firm believer in the power of “yet” and that all students have the potential to achieve if they are open to accept their role within their educational, social, and emotional learning experiences. I encourage them to give their best each day and work to create opportunities for self-awareness, self-reflection, and self-correction as continuous growth. Standards are set high, so that students maintain excellence in all they do.
