Year Joined YCIS:  2017

“I was drawn to YCIS because of its powerful sense of community. Our small size allows our teachers to really know our students and our families. Our East meets West approach to dual language education allows our students to appreciate the richness of diversity and understanding of cultures. YCIS has given me the opportunity to work with people who are not afraid to try to new things and who constantly reflect on their practice. The staff here is always challenging themselves to refine their practice and put students’ best interests at the center of all their decisions.”
