The most unexpected, challenging, & difficult school year wrapped up today! Despite these truths, it was also extremely rewarding. I’m humbled to work with the best staff in the city & have the most resilient kids in the WORLD. Wishing my Jackson family a restful and safe summer!

Congrats to Angela Chan, who is a deserving recipient of the Lindback Award for Distinguished Teaching! When she’s not teaching, you can find her doing home visits, serving on our school’s equity committee, and lending a helping hand to those in need. Congrats!
