FALL

Welcome to the new school year. I know several of you are already back in your classrooms and buildings with your students. My favorite time of year is always August when teachers and students return, as in education we are fortunate enough to have a fresh start every single year. This is the only profession I know of that has this opportunity. Make this year count, make a difference, and let us know how we can support you. 

Warmest wishes, Karla

These two outstanding educators clearly exemplify the mission and goals of the MAE program as established by Kathy Nutting during her tenure as MAE director. 

Lynda Hughes

Lynda is a 4th grade teacher in Jeffco and started her master's degree in the spring of 2012 with a Jeffco cohort. According to Lynda, her most recent class, Multicultural Perspectives, changed the way she views herself as an educator. 

 

"The MAE program has been a wonderful experience for me. I feel that I have grown as a teacher in the program by learning best practices for all students to have access to an equal education. By learning strategies in the program I feel that I can now provide my students an education that allows them to gain even higher academic achievement."
