The students in high school are starting to be independent people and I think it is part of our job to help them prepare for their future endeavors; whether it be continuing their education or attaining a job upon graduation, and to encourage them and be a support system along the way.

In order to help students along the way and to ensure that they have access to the necessary resources that will lead them to success, it is important to first develop positive relationships with our students.

For example, before my FBE teacher would call on her students she would say that she knows they have the right answer and that they are going to tell everyone the right answer because they know. This built the students up and showed that she was invested in the class and excited to hear from

    What interests you about your selected program of study? Computer science has always been the aspect of study that has grabbed my attention from a young age.
