What has been your proudest accomplishment in this program?
Successfully completing the program was a proud accomplishment for me. A full time working teacher, who is a single mom of two boys, one with special needs. If I can do it, anyone can!
Tell us about your final project…
My final project was a comparison between our current education system and shoes. Yes, shoes. If you think about it there is a perfect comparison between the two. The basic premise is that education is not a one size fits all and requires levels of support and different styles for different people. My Response to Intervention in middle school presentation has been very helpful as our district is moving towards implementing that model next year in our middle and high schools(s).
What is your fondest memory with your cohort?
I have so many great memories from the cohort, picking one would be hard. I would have to say the people I met and shared my Tuesday nights with, they all contributed to my learning, personal growth and funny bone.
