Ty wanted to be a veterinarian in 2nd grade, so I got a class pet. He still has his lab coat w/ 'Veterinarian' on it. As a graduating senior, he received a Pre-Vet Scholarship & was the Salutatorian of his class! Moments like these remind me of the power of teaching & believing!

Nothing feels better than looking at past submissions and seeing how much the National Board process has impacted my educational journey. It mirrors my core values of authenticity, growth, & excellence.

I’m a 109er #iykyk C2 ✅
Looking forward to 12.7.24 🙏🏾🎆
