Mary Folletti, B.A. Social Science, M.A.T.

“Teaching kids through place-based education connects them to the land and history of their home and the traditional ecological scientific knowledge of the area. I really want to help our young people be proud of who they are. Going through the Master of Arts in Teaching program at UAS helped me become a teacher so I could pass on the knowledge I gained from my elders.”
