I will forever be grateful for having you as a colleague, co-teacher and coach. It's hard to believe that it was 7 years ago that we were seated next to each other in ManyMinds bonding over UMD and many other commonalities. It wasn't until when we were paired together as co-teachers in year 3 that I had the opportunity to see what an amazing teacher you are. Your belief that all students can succeed, use data to differentiate for each and every student, and the way you seamlessly created an inclusive and safe classroom environment made me a better teacher. You are one of the most humble and hardworking people I have ever met- as the founding special services coordinator, then dean, you simultaneously got married, had two incredible children and made it look easy. Thank you for not just being an outstanding mentor, but also a friend I could trust. I know wherever you go next they will be lucky to have you.
Love,
Shapiro

I remember back when you were Ms. Fuchs and weren't yet married with your beautiful children! You have accomplished so much to be proud of both professionally and personally since you joined the AFNBP community.  Thank you for all the ways in which you have contributed to making AFNBP what it is today.  Working with you was a true pleasure, and I have no doubt that you will continue to do great things in this world.  I wish you all the best in your next chapter!

With appreciation,
Elena

It's been so fun getting to work with you for the past couple of years, and especially during these last few months as your coachee. This work is HARD and I appreciate having the space each week with you to problem solve, vent, and figure things out together. Watching the way you've worked with families, and the trust they have in your is inspiring. Your commitment to making sure all of them feel supported, included, and valued has been something that I've looked up to in this role. I can't wait to see where you end up in the future -- all children and families under your guidance will be so lucky to have you. Best wishes for the future!!

We founded NBP together as teachers and I was always comforted by this fact while serving alongside you on the LT. I've watched you overcome so many challenges throughout our 7 years at NBP, all while becoming a rockstar teacher who always put the needs of our students first. Thank you so much for everything you poured into our school and for the gentle ways you pushed us all to be better. You are going to slay in whatever you do next!

With love,
Jess

It was such a privilege to work with you at NBPES as we both learned new roles. I was always struck by your willingness to try new approaches and lean outside your comfort zone, always in service of students and families and providing all a great education. You will be missed and should feel confident in knowing you've left an indelible impression on the school and set up future leaders.

In gratitude,
Andrew

Alex,
I am so grateful for the partnership we've had the past two years. I am always blown away by your thoughtfulness, ability to navigate SO many different workstreams/needs, and the way in which you are always pushing for stronger supports for scholars that need it most. You are incredible, and know that you have touched so many families and lives, and have had great impact. NBPES, AF, and the SSL cohort will miss you!!! - Caitlin

It has been amazing to work with you over the years and watch you grow into a confident teacher and leader that advocates for every child to have the best education possible. I know you will do amazing things whatever is up next for you. If you ever want to meet up and reminisce about the CSE and SESIS please let me know. : )

Love,
Megan

Alex,
Thank you for everything that you have done to support ALL students at AFNBP and beyond.  As a founding DSS, you saw firsthand how important it is to plan with all scholars in mind from the front end, and your legacy will live on.  Your thoughtful leadership - and your willingness to share across the cohort - will be missed.  Congratulations on your next chapter - and I hope our paths cross again in the future.  Stay in touch.  Special services forever. <3
With appreciation,
Christina

ALEX! When I think back to Year 1 and all of the craziness and uncertainty...then everything in between, from you getting married, starting your family, and owning a home...and where you are now as AFNBP's first DSS, I am so proud of all you've accomplished. Wishing you lots of love and luck in your next chapter. AFNBP will not be the same without you!
