My PhilosophyMy Philosophy
• Train a child up in the ways he should go (Proverb 22:6)
• To whom much is given, much is expected (Luke 12:48). Therefore all students should be treated fairly, but not necessarily equally. If your child has special needs, please let me know now.
• Self esteem is built by being skillful, appreciated, and responsible.
