Graduation date: Friday May 10, 2019
Grade level and cooperating teacher: First grade with Brooke Sloan
Why you chose to become a teacher: I have chosen to become a teacher because I believe in the business of people. Meaning, teaching students social emotional and interpersonal skills is key for the development of a child's growth mindset. It is important for me to teach academics along with these important skills and tools because when our kids are in school, we are teaching for the whole child and the adult they will become.
Future plans after graduation from college: After I graduate, I would like to apply for jobs near my home town of Dexter. My family is highly important to me therefore I hope to teach and live in an area that is close to home.
