I am a Progressive Educator Because ...
There is no one size fits all model when it comes to learning. Every child is unique and learns in their own way. I believe children do their best learning when they explore, imagine, create, and ask questions. The process of learning by doing is at the heart of progressive education.
What I Love About Walden
I love that Walden believes social emotional learning is just as important as academic success.
My Joy
My joy is the outdoors!
Fun Fact About Me
My idea of a perfect day is walking around different towns with my family and trying local coffee shops.
