I Believe Statement

I believe…

…Being an educator is God’s calling for my life.

… Educators are THE MOST influential members of society.

… Educators are civil servants and agents of change when young minds are challenged to
consider and solve timeless societal issues.

… The purpose of education is to create a more tolerant and educated society through
engagement with civics and information analysis.

… Education is the key, cure, and solution to poverty and contemporary enslavement.

… High quality education is a right, not a privilege.

I believe all students…

… Should be challenged to reach their HIGHEST potential regardless of their ethnicity, ability
level, background and socioeconomic status.

… Deserve caring, compassionate, and dedicated teachers.

… Bring valuable experiences to the classroom that must be incorporated into instruction in
order to expose students to varying perspectives of life.

I believe History…

…Is the study of patterns in human behavior and interaction.

… is subject to repetition via ignorance of its truth.

… is LIFE.

I BELIEVE IN LOVE, CHANGE, AND COMMUNITY ENRICHMENT.
