Faculty and Staff
At NICL, we believe that out teachers and administrators must be of a select group. Experienced, well trained, and open to new ideas and new learning. We believe we have put together a committed, and dedicate group of people who enjoy what they do. This perhaps is one of the interesting aspects of teaching here. Teachers must motivate and encourage students to want to achieve personal success. It is our role to learn what motivates each child and then utilize that knowledge. Motivation is an essential component to success.
Our staff must view reflection as a crucial part of their learning process. Continued education is encouraged and supported. Professional development is a top priority in the form of workshops, conferences, seminars on local, state, and national level.
These experiences equip our staff with the necessary skills and guidance in their field, especially in classroom instruction. It encourages, and enables them to grow.
We are supportive of our staff and of those who make time to be competitive, and do research with their peers in this magnificent field of education. Our staff members are real people who will make educational experiences here at Northwest an exciting adventure for both the child and parent.
