I have signed myself up to become a co-creator of allowing student's destinies to manifest. I am excited by the opportunity, saddened by the realities of our educational system (especially in Georgia to which it is the 47th worst performing state according to standardized tests), and nervous that the future of so many will rely in my hands. I am en route to becoming the best ambassador I can be as a secondary mathematics teacher through Teach for America in the Metro-Atlanta region.
I have realized in the 2 days that so many of us (305) are here to witness and be apart of a shared vision: educational opportunities that provide pathways for success. Each and every single one of us have been the beneficiaries of this mission that we are after.
I expect this experience to be a whole lot of spiritual, emotional, physical and mental stress but I am very much looking forward to being stretched and pulled.
