Testimonials

Anne’s work has significantly streamlined our processes, allowing us to focus more on meaningful interactions and less on logistical challenges. With her support, we can redirect our time and energy towards fostering a truly inclusive and supportive learning environment for all students.
- Lauren P, Director of Communications & Marketing

Through Anne’s guidance and collaboration, we were able to create major systemic change. We created an atmosphere where multilingual families are empowered partners with their children’s school and where it is everyone’s charge to ensure every family receives consistent communication in their native language.

Anne is an amazing facilitator of staff development! Our staff were intimidated and fearful of making the wrong mistake when communicating with families. Anne developed and implemented a multistage professional development track for staff that allowed them to practice all components of utilizing translation services with families. Staff felt empowered to call families regularly and schedule meetings using interpretation, thus removing perceived barriers to consistent family communications.
- Briana G, Assistant Principal

Anne’s dedication to equity and inclusion for ELL families is unparalleled. She helped us foster a culture of proactive outreach and engagement with ELL families among teachers.
- Becca R, EL Teacher
