Instruction continues to be at the forefront of everything Ms. Jackson does. At the campus level, she takes a hands-on approach to professional learning, where she leads PLCs based on grade-level needs. Her desire to lead PLCs is also rooted in her passion for continuously growing her craft. She has a growth mindset and engages in the same learning opportunities as teachers with the philosophical belief that we can constantly improve in our craft. She is a data guru, a relationship builder, and someone who will support students, staff, and our Gallardo community fully. She is a reflective practitioner who brings a wealth of knowledge to our campus and is willing to go above and beyond in her efforts to support students. She tutors after-school, conducts after-school PLCs with teachers, and supports the day-to-day instructional operations of the school. We are excited to have Ms. Jackson as this week’s Cardinal Spotlight. Thank you, Ms. Jackson, for all you do to support our students, staff, and community.
