This story aims to provide a peek into Ms. Snyder's AU classroom, a place where inclusion, optimism, and kindness thrive. Each student is treated as an individual learner and can progress in a way that fits them best. No two students take the same journey, but each one is seen, valued, and encouraged to grow in the ways that matter most. I'd like to thank Ms. Synder and all her students for welcoming me in the class and allowing me to get a glimpse into their room. I have had a wonderful time getting to know all the individuals in the classroom.
