Learning is a Process, Not a Destination

My Goals

• To provide students with a positive, nurturing, challenging, rewarding and engaging educational experience.
• To teach, not only to learn, but to understand
• To learn as much from my students as they learn from me
• To reach the goals set by myself, Red Hook High School,
• Red Hook Central School District, New York State and the nation
• To continue to grow, change and adapt as a learner and as an educator
