The video revealed the environment of ASL and after viewing the video, Ms. Woulfe concluded that ASL is a place which is immensely supportive of children and makes learning fun, as well as a place that everyone enjoys coming to everyday. She was also impressed with the initial training that she received upon arrival at ASL, which consisted of learning about “cultural competency and diversity.” Additionally, Ms. Woulfe was encouraged by the fact that ASL’s mission statement “[isn’t] just something on paper but that it is really something that supports everything that happens at the school.” ASL is also the most “student-centered school” Ms. Woulfe has ever experienced.
