This may be my important role yet as an educator: My principal and district personnel director appointed me as a site supervisor for a new student-teacher from La Verne. I got an email late last week asking if I would oversee a student who has an urgent placement need. I replied "Of course". Ms. Lydia Valencia and I met Monday. It is going to be an interesting five weeks for the both of us as we go through this new experience. Thankfully, Ms. Valencia is bright and enthusiastic about teaching. I have no doubt that she will have success in the near future. But more importantly, I feel an obligation to be at my best. I strive to be consistently positive, helpful, and encouraging. Considering my super tight schedule, this is going to be a very challenging task. Nonetheless, I am grateful for this opportunity for me to develop as an educator.
