I love helping people. I cannot think of anything I would rather do. I do not necessarily like highlighting my own accomplishments so I will use the words of my bosses, students, and colleagues over the years. I hope this will give you some insight into the person and employee I try to be. "She is not easily flustered, and keeps amazingly calm in the face of change"-guidance counselor"Through my observations of Lori, I have concluded that she is a phenomenal teacher whose student-centered approach makes her one of the most respected and admired staff members in our school. She is also a team player, always willing to take on new challenges for the good of our students. Lori has interpersonal skills and works well independently or in groups." -teacher"She has made a connection with our students and staff, and it is evident how much she truly cares about our kids. She always makes time to talk with them and see help if they need it" -guidance counselor" Ms. Rolla has become an invaluable member of our faculty while earring many hats. She has become a leader of teachers, a driving force behind many of our extra programs, a model teacher, the ultimate advocate for our students, and lends extra service without complaint of compensation." -principal "She has a tremendous respect for children and their future success...I believe Lori is a successful educator because she quickly establishes great rapport with the student. She is engaging and professional. She uses the technology available to peak student interest. She also has a positive connection with the facility and staff." - teacher "I know the parents and students benefited very much by you working with them on a personal basis. You are a natural at this job already!" -guidance counselor "What I do know is that without you, I wouldn't have just completed my first year of college. You helped me so much and there's really no way that I can ever explain it or thank you enough. If you ever feel like you're making no progress with other people then you need to think of me because when my parents were missing out of my life you helped pick up the slack and get me to where I am...You made me possible and don't ever want you to forget how big of an influence you've been."-student"I want you to know how blessed and fortunate we feel to have had you in Will's life. Thank you for doing what others have not always done--taking a change on him and allowing him to rise to the occasion. I think that this is the greatest service a teacher can do for a student."-parent.
