Allie is an amazing teacher and curriculum developer! Over the course of two years, I had the great pleasure of overseeing Allie. We collaborated on a number of cross-curricular initiatives to improve student outcomes. I was always impressed by Allie's ability to make difficult content accessible to all learners through innovative lesson design. She is a compassionate person who always puts the needs of her students first. She is also a team player and a supportive resource to all staff members.
