Welcome :)

Hello and welcome to my little (very little...) piece of the internet. I started this blog as an assignment for my final semester in the Master's program for Administration and Educational Leadership at Fresno State. The course, EAD 269, centers on Site Based Leadership, and I'm looking forward to it.

I'm currently a third grade teacher at a school in Sanger Unified. This is my fifth year in the classroom and I couldn't ask for a job better suited to my goals in life right now. However, in the future, I hope to make the leap from inside the classroom to out of it, working on the system instead of in the system (wise words from Dr. Buster.)

I hope to continue the journey that started last year when I joined the Master's cohort and finish up this December. Only 2 more classes and 1 project to go - sounds so manageable in those small numbers.

Here's to a great semester!
