Welcome to Avalon School
"Being a special education teacher at Avalon School has been my dream since high school. I am thrilled to have the opportunity to give back to the community that helped me grow so much as a person and inspired me to become an educator."
" My role as a teacher is one of significance, as I am teaching my students curriculum, standards, concepts, how to communicate with others or share their own feelings effectively. "
" I truly believe the foundation of every great teacher, starts with an individual who loves to learn. "
"I teach to instill a love of learning and positive thinking in students as well as a deep and working understanding of empathy and kindness to the point of practicing it in their daily lives."
"Learning is a lifelong adventure. If a teacher instills an attitude of learning in their student, the student will have a desire to learn the material that is being presented."
