“Every child can learn. Just not on the same day or in the same way.” Because of this, she promotes the student's individual growth by identifying each child’s learning style, strengths, and interests that foster their love for learning and recognizes it can’t be a one-size- fits all approach" George Evans

This means belonging to a resilient community that is always willing to work and help anyone in need. A community that respects diversity and promotes good values.
