"I decided to go back to school and become a teacher because I work with special ed children already and I see the need."

"You become wise. You work up a plan with the classroom teacher and the school psychologist, the parents, the therapist, the whole team."

"Special education takes time and patience but the rewards are great, if you are persistent and caring."

"Roosevelt High School is like my house. I'm not going to let anything come in and disrupt it. And these kids, they're my babies."

"The school bus 'roadeo' is fun because it's educational. You learn a lot."

"The school—that should be sanctuary."
