If she is ever asked to do anything she will perform/complete the task and does it well. She loves this school and all of the students. Ann is a natural born leader and her reasoning for her decisions is always based on the best interests of the students, faculty, and staff at the school. She legitimately wants to help students who need the help or else she would not be at this school. She is always willing to help any faculty member, despite their grade level or subject, and she is true to her word. belinda_terry2 https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2468053652 2023-02-03 19:54:17 UTC https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2468053652 Always jovial and super caring.

Motivation- Candy encourages everyone to do their BEST academically and socially. She builds relationships with the kids and makes them want to learn- I mean... DeAnthony is doing his work, not much more to say after this :-)Leadership- Candy always leads in our building, whether it's through being a mentor to others, or as a leader in PBIS (documents)Creativity and Imagination- Candy always uses games and different activities to help students learn and to build a sense of ownership and competition. Candy- Candy is the MOST punctual teacher I know, and she lives extremely far away. I wish I had her time management skills :-)Communication- Candy communicates very well with her students, whether her ppt or games are in both English and Spanish, or through modeling what to do (step by step)for those who need that structure due to low ability to focus. Candy also emails her colleagues and allows us to know exactly what is going on (lunch detention, student issue we all need to know about, or an upcoming meeting) belinda_terry2 https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474074408 2023-02-08 20:26:07 UTC https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474074408 Goes above and beyond in and outside the classroom. belinda_terry2 https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474075723 2023-02-08 20:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474075723 She goes above and beyond to support a number of club and her students. belinda_terry2 https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474076669 2023-02-08 20:28:19 UTC https://padlet.com/belinda_terry2/8k7nezikui2jhd1a/wish/2474076669
