    I am so thankful for the friendships I have made in my classes. I have been so blessed to be surrounded by awesome, like-minded people who want to succeed in their classes and future careers while encouraging me and making it fun along the way. 

  • Marianne Pichardo Student Ambassador

    I chose education because I want to make school a safe space for my students. While I may not be able to change the entire world, I can change a life. By changing one life at a time, I hope I can open the door to a brighter future.

  • Jamie Giangrosso Class of 2002, 2006, 2008, 2014

    I went to graduate school to become a better teacher for my students. I ended up going back two more times because it not only made me a better teacher, it made me a better leader to where I was making a significant impact on the lives of not only my students but my colleagues as we worked together to provide the very best for our students.
