What have you learned in this current season of your work that will fuel your hope for the future?
Over the last 8 months, I have seen the passion and commitment of educators and the reliance of our students. I have learned that if we are intentional about building and creating a school community grounded in compassion and commitment we can face any obstacle and help all students succeed. I have also experienced the benefits of family engagement and look forward to many more opportunities to work together as a larger community. The commitment of our educators and the resilience of our students and families continue to fuel me to be the best servant leader I can be!
