Ellie that sounds like a great school environment! I love seeing classrooms that highlight diverse cultures and languages. It immediately makes you feel welcomed and accepted, regardless of your own background. One thing I really liked at my last student teaching placement was the promotion of different college/university opportunities. There were pictures on the walls in the hallways of the colleges teachers graduated from and what degrees they received. It was a cool way to expose students, indirectly, to the many different paths they can take post high school. -Christine
