About Darcy
I believe the most important thing kids can learn in school is how to learn. I strive to provide tools, encouragement, and experiences that make kids ask questions and seek out answers. I believe that the best learning we can do is learn from our mistakes. I work to build a strong, safe classroom community to foster risk taking and learning from that process. I push kids to do their best every single day, and they do the same to me. In my classroom, we are all learners.
