  1. This looks good! It seems like your transition from the secondary to the elementary level is a successful one! In the professional experience section, you listed your campus as exemplary for 2008-2009 but also listed it as recognized for the same year. I'm guessing thats a typo. Looks like you put in a lot of work.
