I enjoyed helping previously under estimated student find their way of learning. I can only describe the process as rewarding, and priceless. I began to understand the overwhelming need for accommodations, education equity, and equality. I also began to understand the need for education system that actually cared about the educational growth of all students.

I relocated to New Orleans in June 2017 after accepting a founding leadership position within an alternative charter school organization. The experience has been amazing, yet very challenging. I am proud of our accomplishment. I certainly enjoyed learning the process of opening a new school, starting with zero students, and achieving our maximum enrollment. Many of my days and nights are spent ensuring that education equity, and equality prevails! ]]> 2018-09-26 22:09:46 UTC https://padlet.com/bill_003_bm/2a31i2pnu3qo/wish/286281372 bill_003_bm https://padlet.com/bill_003_bm/2a31i2pnu3qo/wish/286283747 I miss trail running in PA.
