  • “The partnership with USM has offered tremendous growth opportunities and has developed into a wonderful reciprocal relationship. As the interns apply their coursework and knowledge through their placements, they bring energy, innovation, and thoughtful planning to their classrooms. I help to guide them with instruction and experience while at the same time examining my own practice to sharpen and polish my skills.”
