“I am delighted to be here, and I'm particularly delighted to be here on this occasion.”
All summer I’ve been thinking about the growing minds that will soon enter my schools. It’s a true delight when I look upon the smiling faces of my students at the beginning of each school year.
“We meet at a college noted for knowledge, in a city noted for progress, in a state noted for strength, and we stand in need of all three...”
We are Victoria ISD and we are #VISDProud. Education is the foundation for knowledge. Each day we will strive for excellence and progress as students and staff face academic and emotional challenges with perseverance. Students will have the opportunity to strengthen their character, discipline, and resilience.
“But why, some say, the moon? Why choose this as our goal? … We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard…”
As a
counselor I set goals for myself each year. Many of these goals will stretch my
abilities and strengthen me as an educator. I want to make a difference in each child’s life and I want each child to make
a positive difference in our community. This might seem unreachable to some,
but I see it as an endless opportunity for growth. #KidsDeserveIt
“The growth of our
science and education will be enriched by new knowledge of our universe and
environment,”
I love
learning and I will continue to learn as a counselor, teacher and educator. As education evolves I want to be on the edge of
innovation and new ideas. My professional learning community will continue to
expand as I collaborate with other counselors and educators. By surrounding myself
with successful leaders in education I will continue to expand on my own
knowledge and create a positive learning environment for my students.
Join us as we blast off into a great year!
