Educational Philosophy
Every person has worth and should be treated with kindness, compassion, and dignity. Most people can benefit from a listening ear, and can flourish when they feel they have a safe place to seek support and to explore difficult situations or emotions. High school students are no different. Therefore, I believe each student at A. L. Brown is worthy of our attention, focus, support, and kindness.
