At Burlington, we have witnessed these challenges way before the pandemic. Now, the inequities and injustices have been louder and sharper - but we teach on.

We are managing our own personal stresses during this uncertain times - but we teach on.

We are forced to embrace new techniques and new strategies without new funding or societal support - but we teach on.

What about our team inspires you to teach on?]]> 2020-04-16 13:13:23 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/510637156 charles_miller7 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511244251 I am inspired by the way every single of one of our team members began to approach this work with a driven, equity-lens. The hurdles were clear and daunting, but I continue to see the same drive towards being the "highest quality school in LA" that I saw when we were walking the hallways. I feel privileged and honored to work on this team of educators.]]> 2020-04-16 17:16:22 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511244251 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511334304 Everyone is working so hard to ensure learning continues! Ms. Fatima has been on campus making sure everything goes smoothly, Ms. Marie Santos is going out of her way to make connections with students, Blankis is making sure our campus is disinfected and clean! 
This is all happening while teachers are spending countless hours preparing high quality instruction! We are truly an amazing school! We love the community we serve! ]]> 2020-04-16 17:59:36 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511334304 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511412144 I am blown away by the depth of support and resources we have been able to share with students and families as we get this launch underway. We knew in the beginning there would be so many variables and barriers, but as they keep coming up this team keeps finding ways to work around them. I am honored to work with this dedicated team through such a bizarre and trying time for us all.

Humanity first is our approach and I could not be more proud to be a part of this resilient and inspiring team. We teach the whole child with our whole selves. I am endlessly motivated and uplifted by our staff, our students, our families and our community. Our daily routine is one of a kind during "normal" life and we shatter the glass ceiling on a daily basis, so it is no surprise during this unprecedented and uncertain time that we continue to rise and break through barriers. We are the dragons for a reason.

We all have our own tasks to complete, however I've seen how quickly team members have been in responding and dropping what they are doing to help each other out. I love being part of this Dragon Family that is so dedicated to serve our families.

It is amazing to see that our team is going above & beyond to ensure that our kids are getting the education they deserve despite the circumstances we are in. We may not be physically teaching the children, but I know for a fact that they are feeling all the love through our videos and check-ins. It is a uncertain time, but we have been leaning into each other to make the best of it & it shows. I am so grateful to be working with each & everyone of you. The support is felt from admin to teacher, parent, and child. Thank you! -Solany]]> 2020-04-16 21:44:42 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511699809 julianasantos4 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511706539 As we go through our 3rd week of quarantine, I continue to be amazed by the actions of love and devotion from our staff. From little messages of encouragement, to offers to support or take on tasks, to endless calls to families and advocating for our students, I continue to be inspired and honored to work along your side. I feel grateful for all of you and I know I am blessed to have been chosen to be part of the Dragon Family.

We work because we want to inspire, educate, advocate, break any barriers to the students’ success, and make a difference into their lives. Even now that we’re hit by uncertainties, we continue to serve our community to the best of our abilities. I am beyond blessed with the support that I am getting from everyone. Despite of their busy schedules, they always manage to sit down and offer their helping hands. Working at Burlington inspires me to be a better educator.  It is truly an honor to be part of this amazing team!  - Krysta]]> 2020-04-16 22:02:24 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511718471 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511724186 I know that every single thing we do is driven by love for our students and families! That is inspiring! It's amazing that even though we are not physically together, I feel that we are even more connected than we have ever been. Everyone has been so thoughtful in making sure we roll out a plan that is both rigorous and loving towards our families. ]]> 2020-04-16 22:08:00 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511724186 elizabethrodriguez2 https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511763335 I am SO inspired by everyone at Burlington! The staff and the families have shown bravery, perseverance, curiosity to learn, and persistence to continue the education that our community DESERVES. It is a difficult and scary time right now. But we will NOT let it knock us down, and I feel certain that we will come out stronger because everyone has been ALL IN to continue for our families.

Its been a whirlwind for sure but one thing I am taking away from all of this is GRATITUDE.  I am proud of the work that my kinder team and I have put in thus far and grateful for them daily. I am grateful to be a part of such supportive work environment that advocates for students receiving a great education, even during this crisis. Let's take this ONE DAY AT A TIME! ]]> 2020-04-16 23:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511793403 rosaorellana https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511795681 I am VERY inspired through the dedication, resourcefulness, and open-mindedness that all staff have demonstrated in this pandemic. Truly my heart has been broken more than once as I communicate with our scholars and their families. I know that all of us our struggling in our own ways, but we continue to push forward and teach on with the hope that we will see everyone in the future. We keep going even when we are frustrated, sad, happy, and feeling an overwhelming amount of emotions. I am grateful for my amazing 2nd Grade team and for all of the incredible, resilient, and hard-working individuals that work alongside us (each and every one of you). Having been at CNCA Burlington for about 6 years, I can honestly say that this is the most thankful I have ever been to work with ALL of you. I can't imagine being anywhere else. THANK YOU! ]]> 2020-04-16 23:28:32 UTC https://padlet.com/charles_miller7/wepcm5dgmdpis6jg/wish/511795681
