Some of the Values that Shape My Work
That we can find an ethical culture, an alternative way to live together and be visitors, caretakers of this beautiful earth and leave it better than we found it. That education - in its broadest sense - is the key to a progressive future. That we are our “sisters” keepers, interconnected during our sojourn here.
Work with Families, Children, Schools, and Communities
I have been a classroom as well as a reading and resource room teacher in schools from rural Maine to suburban Scarsdale and worked closely with parents, colleagues and children.
