Dear Darwin, John, Peter, Kelli, Katrina, Shelley, Kenneth, Marc, Douglasq, Calvin, Evan, Anne, Lori, Nick, Ann, Steve, and Dan,

Thank you all for supporting the New Leaders Giving Tuesday Campaign! Your contributions support Gina, a principal in the Memphis, Tennessee area.

Gina has worked in education for almost 25 years, and she is still searching for opportunities to grow her practice. She is excited to continue her learning with New Leaders and work with a community of like-minded educators.

After teaching for 11 years, Gina became an assistant principal and administrative intern in Virginia, where she worked to ensure quality instruction for 800 to 1,400 students in the district. During her time as a middle school assistant principal, she helped increase overall student proficiency in mathematics by 13 percent on the state exam.

Gina believes, “it is my duty as a public servant to ensure that students of color are exposed to instructional practices that will ensure that they become productive, global citizens.”

Gina is grateful for your geneorsity; thank you all for supporting New Leaders and children in the Memphis area.
