Life in the City
Since the 2000s conservation efforts have managed to save many architectural pieces and achieved several large-scale revitalizations, including the restoration of several historic theatres and entertainment venues, high-rise renovations, new sports stadiums, and a riverfront revitalization project. This means there's always plenty for us to do (when we're not lesson planning and teaching!).

What are you looking forward to the most in ACE this year?
I am incredibly excited to meet my students and create a community in our classroom. One of my favorite parts of attending a Catholic grade school was getting to meet and know each of my teachers. It was a tight knit community that I am hoping to replicate in my classroom and school.
