Hear From Our Team Members

Principal, Roxbury Prep Dorchester Campus

Frankline Mardi

"I live in Dorchester because I want to know what’s happening in the neighborhood. I make an effort to go to places like community events that students and families will be at, so they can see me and see that I’m also a part of the place they live. I want to create more joy in the school and I’m starting by being the face of that joy every day."

Enseignant, 5e année de mathématiques, Rochester Prep Middle School - West Campus

Shaniqua Johnson

"Je donne à mes élèves les moyens de prendre en charge leur apprentissage. En les faisant étudier de manière autonome à la maison, je leur inculque la valeur de l'utilisation des ressources et de la création de liens en dehors de l'école. C'est dans des moments comme celui-ci que la mission d'Uncommon - amener tous les élèves à l'université et à en sortir - se manifeste.
