One hope that I have when working with children and families
who come from diverse backgrounds is that when they are in my presence or think
of how I made them feel, I want it to be a positive memory. I want to have a
positive effect on children from different backgrounds so that one day they can
and will pass along the same gestures. I want to be the beginning of a positive
change.
One goal I would like to set for the issues of diversity,
equity, and social justice is bringing forth awareness that eventually will
create change. I believe we as professionals are aware, but I don’t believe we
all know how and where to begin the change at. I want to help with that
evolution. I want to be the change our education system needs.
I want to say thank you to all of my colleagues for helping
me grow and to begin understanding where my true purpose and calling. I am
blessed to be able to take this journey with some amazing people. We are only
half way done with our courses, and I can’t wait till we continue our growth
over our last classes.
