Professional development

Journey to National Board Certification

I need National Board Certification to become the best possible teacher I can for my students. I am requesting assistance for the fees associated with the four components of the National Boards, and the Registration.

My Students

Learning is not about just memorizing facts of events. It is about teaching them to learn from the past. We must give every student the ability to learn and succeed.

"Learn from yesterday, live for today, hope for tomorrow; the important thing is not to stop questioning" ~ Albert Einstein.

Our students face many multiple challenges. Some of our students are impacted by difficulties such as homelessness and military deployments. Helping them rise up and be the best they can be is my job. I want them to reach for the moon in all that they do so that they always land among the stars.

My Project

With this project, I am hoping to become a National Board Certified Teacher. I am requesting assistance for registration, and the four components that are required for the National Board program. I want to be the best teacher that I can be, and that requires always pushing forward and learning myself. National Board Certification will give me opportunities to evaluate the professional I am, and the professional I want to be.

“Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel”―Socrates.

My students deserve the best teacher they can have. National Board certification will allow me to showcase to my students, the true meaning of a lifetime learner. By being the best I know I can be, I can further my own education, while offering the best education I can give to my students.
