Summary
I am a firm believer in encouraging acceptance in my classroom. Every student has the right to be treated with dignity, regardless of gender, sexual orientation, racial or ethnic diversity, age, religion, ability, or achievement. My classroom will be a safe space in which children may express their own beauty without fear of ridicule. I promise to educate with integrity and honesty, and to guide my students in their journey of knowledge. I will ensure that each student knows that I have confidence in them and will be the coach cheering them on at the finish line.
