Remembering that each day we have a victory; whether big or small, we will accomplish something and inspire someone everyday we educate our students. I know she is with me and smiles each time there is a success that I or my students have accomplished! I am so thankful for Karen! I will be celebrating Karen on her birthday by participating in a "Girls on the Run" 5k with one of my students and will watch the Giants Game 1:05! I will be posting a picture after the race!]]> 2021-04-30 19:33:18 UTC https://padlet.com/helenasusilva/akxt6sy50fqt2v4s/wish/1479760558 Toni Chiu tonichiu1 https://padlet.com/helenasusilva/akxt6sy50fqt2v4s/wish/1504232426 When it comes to educating children and steering them to reach their full potential, Karen represents the quintessential of that caring educator. I came so far as a teacher because of Karen when she took me under her wing as the boys basketball coach for her school. I love teaching sports skills, but Karen revealed a light of sports that teaches life values. Even I as an employee working alongside Karen grew as a coach and furthermore a contributing member in a school community. That's what Karen's natural aura do for the people around her. You just can't help but to see the bigger picture in what you do. And thus, I found my passion in cultivating the developmental milestones for children in sports and Physical Education. This year's for Karen's birthday, I plan to make a contribution to Positive Coaching Alliance in honor of Karen and all she did for me and youth sports. ]]> 2021-05-07 22:28:29 UTC https://padlet.com/helenasusilva/akxt6sy50fqt2v4s/wish/1504232426 P.E.R.C.
