Today was my first day as an intern in Region 12! My assignment is split between two elementary schools in the district, each with less than 100 students and only one teacher per grade. It’s a huge difference from working in New Milford Schools, where grades 4-6 has ~1,200 students! I love the small-school feeling and witnessing how all the students know and look out for each other. I’m really excited to work more closely with the faculty and staff of the schools and observe various teaching styles. (I’ve already learned so much!)
