To make learning meaningful to our students and community. To honor those who taught me. To answer the questions children need answered in their language.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable teaching moment was when my students discovered iron in the sand with the magnet blocks. It was the most humbling teachable moment in my life where I learned from my students to chill out and follow their lead.
