Welcome Tigers! I am excited to begin the inclusive work of planning and implementing additional systems of support for multilingual learners and their families at Fern Creek High School.

Your Academy Counselor is your first level of support, then I work alongside them as additional support for best practices for Multilingual Learners (MLs).
