State Teacher of the Year,

I
am a native Washingtonian and a product of the D.C. public schools.
I have been teaching for 17 years. Over the years, I have been the
recipient of many honors, which include the Unsung Heroes Award from
Ward 7 of the City Council of the District of Columbia, two Certificates
of Merit from the Mayor of the District of Columbia, the Say Yes Program
Outstanding Service/Commitment Award, and the McGogney Elementary
School Distinguished Service Award, where I am currently teaching.
My personal philosophy is "Every student, regardless of ability, background,
or educational objectives, has a right to learn in an atmosphere that
is free from fear and prejudice, and is thereby, conducive to learning."
Teaching is giving. Teaching is sharing. It is an opportunity to grow
right along with your students. Teaching is a commitment to yourself,
to your students, and to your profession. |
