My Mission Statement

I will embrace each day with patience and guidance as I strive to make a  difference with the children in my care. 
  I will raise the children’s self- esteem with positive reinforcements and empower them to believe they can  achieve their goals.  
I will treat children equally as well as with respect  and compassion and will maintain positive relationships with families and
  colleagues.  I will have age-appropriate expectations for academics and  behavior and hold children accountable.
