PHILOSOPHY

I believe that each child is a unique individual who needs a secure, caring, and stimulating environment in which to grow and mature emotionally, intellectually, physically, and socially. I will help children to develop their potential by believing in them as capable individuals.  I believe each and every child has the potential to bring something unique and special to the world.   I have had the opportunity to work with numerous students on all academic and functioning levels.  I will strive to do what is best for each individual student. I also have a vision of a world where people learn to respect, accept, and embrace the differences between everyone.
