Lindsay Anastacio - Assistant Principal, Windsor Elementary

Why did you originally become an educator?

I have always enjoyed reading and learning and I want others to enjoy it just as much.  I fell in love with the field of special education after working for Northwest Special Recreation Association at a young age.  The recreation opportunities that we were able to provide children with disabilities was incredible, it was from there that I realized my passion to educate students with disabilities.

Brad Carter - Principal, Westgate Elementary

Why did you originally become an educator?

I was the youngest of six kids and have always been around A LOT of kids (mostly my nieces and nephews).  When picking a profession, I wanted to find something that would contribute in supporting my community and making it a better place. Being around my nieces and nephews all the time served as training for the profession.

Why did you originally become an educator?

Helping others is something I really enjoy doing...Those "ah ha" moments when you're learning new things and teaching new things to others are so rewarding!

Steve Perkins - Associate Principal, South Middle School

Why did you originally become an educator?

I have had many teachers throughout my life who impacted me and made me realize that teaching is what I wanted to go into.  Both of my parents were also educators their entire careers so I have always been a part of the educational realm.
