 Jamie Schulz reading to her Kindergarten Class at Danforth Elementary School

Jamie Schulz: "Before this experience, I had never given a second thought to urban schools. I just assumed that I would never teach in one, and so I was not interested in the matter. When I first received the news of this placement, I was terrified... By the end of the first week, however, this feeling had long been forgotten. I fell in love with my school and its surroundings... the faculty, the staff, and especially the students. ... It was like nothing I had ever experienced before. I can't begin to describe how much I learned about teaching, and myself as a teacher." |
