"I love working in education so much that it is hard to consider what I do a job. Over the years, I have enjoyed building lasting relationships with my students and their parents. The everyday opportunities to inspire students to become lifelong learners make my calling to be an educator worthwhile. As educators, we have the possibility to change the trajectory of a child's life for the better."
