Accepting Change in Others
One of the most beautiful parts of working with humans is observing change and growth in others. One of our favorite parts of working with children is that growth is always occurring. Growth can be seen in so many ways, our reading, writing, math, and social skills. Students and staff are always working together to make sure that students are growing in the way that they need. Whether that is math support, or social emotional support, we are a community that is proud of growth and change.Accepting and encouraging students growth in math  a safe and healthy manner. Students are always learning and growing. We can help support our students by making sure they can see and understand that growth can occur in many different ways.
