so my mom was a teacher
taught first grade and I swore I
would never be a teacher because I saw how hard it was
it's all the work that she did as an elementary school
teacher I studied genetics when I went to
ANM and plan to work in the lab
that's incredibly boring after you
do it for a while and realized that
my heart was really in making a difference but making
a difference with kids so I taught
for the first year under emergency certification in
a little district and Louise Texas as
a 1A school so I had 6 through 12
science and some math thrown in there
the student council sponsor the National Honor Society
sponsor ran the concession stand at the football games
all the things in the first year um but that's
that's where I knew uh
my heart was education in
my opinion is the great equalizer it's
what what can make a difference for
anyone at any time and I'm
very passionate about making sure kids get
what they need and when they need it where they need it because
sets up our community for Success
so that's our students up for Success creates
happy families happy
happy people stepping into this community
is like the best possible
scenario because the structures the Traditions
the culture here is already so positively
and well-established I've got a
lot of great systems and supports that are
are already here that I just get to
be part of as as we start this year really
am excited about the students coming back to the
building and the teachers coming back to the building they
are the why they are the
reason that we're here and so
to have them back in the building and our
our teachers back in the building are what I'm most excited about
