Mission	My mission as the Technology Coordinator at Annistown Elementary is to provide an environment where each member of the Annistown community is valued as a unique individual with the ability to learn and the need to be actively involved in the learning process. I will strive to teach academic skills, helping each student to learn to think and reason logically, critically and creatively. My work will be committed to conveying responsibility and self-discipline into my students and peers; this will allow them to become more independent and productive in their technology endeavors, subsequently, becoming more productive citizens of the world.
