Image of a Teacher

A teacher is a reflective professional who nurtures the potential of individuals through knowledge of child and adolescent development. The teacher addresses the diversity of student needs in our multicultural society and has the ability to mesh the methodologies, theories, concepts, and principles upon which the art and science of education are built.

Working from a pedagogical and academic knowledge base, the teacher integrates these elements into effective strategies that promote learning. In addition, the teacher is a life-long learner who works with students, colleagues, administrators, other professionals, and parents to evaluate the ongoing educational process. From this collaboration comes meaningful growth.
