Reflections from the week of 4-17-17
Though we are at the busiest time of the year, let's make sure the end of year is just as remarkable as when we began. Educating others can be daunting, but we have been called to serve, nurture, guide, teach, love, and to make a difference in the lives of others. Motivating reluctant learners, differentiating instruction, developing creative lessons, and keeping students engage can be overwhelming during this time of year. However, we must keep our purpose at the core of everything we do. We will continue to shine so that we may positively influence others in our campus community.
This is Your Moment to Shine!
