Honored to be Honored
Recently, I received the Torchbearer award from the EnCorps Teacher Program. I encourage you to visit their website.
I am especially honored because it is directly connected to my new position as Program Director of the Los Angeles Urban Teacher Residency program. This program focuses on recent college (BA) graduates and career changers who are interested in becoming teachers in the areas of math and science.
My new position allows me to meet so many wonderful people in a wide range of programs that positively impact our students, families, schools, and/or community.
This was a teachable moment.
No matter what type of work you are doing...a school's custodian, office manager, librarian, security, cafeteria worker, gardener, nurse, psychologist,teacher, parent, administrator or coach...DO IT WELL...we just never know when someone is watching and appreciating the efforts we put into doing an excellent job in any position.
Continue to love children...in whatever line of work you do...I am honored to serve...
Proverb - “All riches are multiplied by the simple process of sharing them where they may serve others.”
