I work hard to maintain a classroom environment in which every student feels welcome, respected, and capable of growth. When there is a problem, I will work with the students to find a solution. If we cannot, or if the problem persists, then I will ask for assistance from other school personnel and reach out to the parents/guardians. If you ever feel unwelcome, disrespected, or unsafe in my classroom, please bring it to my attention immediately.
