Siento como estoy haciendo el trabajo más importante que existe. Quiero asegurarme de que los estudiantes sientan que la escuela es un lugar divertido - y es un lugar para ellos. Me siento muy afortunado de ser su primer maestro aquí.
I feel like I am doing the most important job there is. I want to make sure students feel like school is a fun place - and it’s a place for them. I feel very lucky to be a student’s first teacher here.

Students can explore interests and develop leadership through various extracurricular activities and clubs. For me, that's been with OEC (Opportunities in Emergency Care). Our strong community involvement shows our commitment to giving back. That is what makes me Panther Proud.

Fourth graders are experimenting with pinwheel turbines during science. They are testing two methods to generate energy, wind power and hydropower. They make guesses – hypothesize. Then they work in small groups through timed experiments. This is science, as a specialist class, in elementary school.
