He holds my students to very high standards. He lets them know they can do things they never thought they could and that I will be there to support them in the process. I strive to make my classroom a safe place for students to share their ideas and problem solve. I develop rules and guidelines for my classroom. I enforce the schools’ code of conduct in a fair and equitable manner. I remain alert and make referrals to principals as needed. I remain engaged in a team and volunteer my time to participate in assessment and improvement of policies and curriculum.
