About (request update)

I have thirty-three years of administrative and teaching experience working at the secondary level and post-secondary level. I have recently retired as an Assistant Principal of Testing, Special Education Administrator, Section 504 Administrator, paraprofessional supervisor and CTAE Supervisor at a high school with 1,350 students and 146 faculty and staff members. Additionally, I have experience as the Assistant Principal of Curriculum from a few years back. My primary duties are to supervise, plan and schedule all state mandated assessments; supervise our Special Education department; teacher observations, teacher hiring, conducting in-services, and supervising CTAE, and many other responsibilities.

Current Whereabouts:

I have just retired and am looking forward to working more in church and my community.

Life & Professional Aspirations:

My professional aspirations are to obtain an online adjunct faculty position in the School of Education. My job, as an instructor, is to create an atmosphere that fosters learning. One of the most important concepts I hope to impart to students is that learning is a process that never ends. For me, the learning process includes improving myself professionally.
