When I was an SFUSD student I knew that my teachers cared about me, and now I feel that all my daughters’ teachers care about them.

I really love that I am able to witness children connecting with and caring for the environment at such a young age.

It’s really nice to see the connection that I make with people of my culture, and to be that inspiration for them to see they can also be a teacher.

As a math teacher I know that every student has the capacity to think like a mathematician, and by working together we can reach our fullest potential.

Food is the path to history and also to the future.

Our students are our core and we will get through this because of their energy which keeps us going every day.

I like being a substitute for the freedom and the excitement of every day.

I went to McAteer High School back in the 80s - education makes sense in the trajectory of my life and I want to give back by working with teens, especially in career technical education.

I am so proud and encouraged by SFUSD’s commitment and dedication to our students.

SFUSD gives me the opportunity to show my students San Francisco, and not just in a classroom.

It’s nice that we’re doing something to help the community by building a playground through the Wilderness Arts Literacy Collaborative (WALC).

We’re a neighborhood school serving the Excelsior District and community and have so many deep traditions.
