INTASC #10 Interpretation - Teachers do for what is best for there students and that includes taking responsibility for there students learning. That means going above and beyond the normal of learning. Collaboration of your school, community, and families can create a learning environment that is immersive and this allows students to be open to multiple different types of learning.

Mainstage Classic Theatre

I have worked with the Mainstage Classic Theatre Company in Mansfield, Texas on and off for the past six years. This theatre gives theatre to the community of Mansfield that would otherwise never get to experience live theatre. This company also allows students to do additional shows outside of their own school departments. Family is also a large part of their identity. In shows you can see upto three generations of families on stage together.
