As a part of my graduate program, I was required to create a portfolio that demonstrated my understanding of the ELCC Standards (Educational Leadership). Here is a link to my Educational Leadership portfolio which describes the activities and events I have participated in to support my growth as an aspiring leader.

Alternate IEP Chairperson 2017 - 2018
As my new role as the alternate IEP chairperson for the 2017-2018 school year, I attended off-site full day professional development meetings for all IEP chairpersons on a monthly basis. These meetings helped me develop a deeper understanding of the legal, ethical, and moral aspects of the special education/IEP process.
