My Students

The students I teach are the most diverse children ever. I love that each has a strong personality that shines bright and brings laughter and smiles with them daily. Many face economic disadvantages but do not let them define who not what they believe about them. They deserve nothing less than the best when it comes to their education.

My Project

.The mission of the Forest Brook Middle School Center for Restorative Behavior & Discipline Management is to develop well rounded, confident and responsible individuals who aspire to achieve their full potential. We will do this by providing a welcoming, happy, safe, and supportive environment in which everyone is equal, achievements are celebrated, and refection is key.Student will have the opportunity to reflect on behaviors, plan to correct behaviors moving forward, cool down space, and participate in social emotional learning for growth.

The items in the project will help students move forward in correcting their behavior, and enhance their social emotional needs in that students will be exposed STEM education, critical thinking, and self discipline.
