The Association of American Educators (AAE) recently profiled a number of charter school teachers for National Charter Schools Week, including Northwest Professional Educators member Becky Baird, Lead Teacher for Xavier Charter School's Grammar School (K-4). Becky is a founding teacher of the school which offers a classical education curriculum accented by the fine arts. Xavier believes that all students benefit from a rigorous, content-rich educational program that develops academic potential and personal character. Classes are taught at honors level, with the expectation that our students are college bound.

With Teacher Appreciation Week in full swing, AAE would like to say THANKS to all the teachers out there who not only taught us our ABCs and 123s, but who also taught us to overcome obstacles in life, who encouraged us to follow our dreams, and who saw the true potential in us that others didn’t.
