Student Profile:Lucretia SmithColumbus,Ohio

As a child, Lucretia Smith enjoyed a favorite game—

playing school with her two sisters, and she was always

the teacher. “Teaching is something I’ve always wanted to

do,” says Smith.

She’s been preparing herself ever since second grade, when

she started working with children with disabilities. “I really

enjoyed helping the special education teachers,” she says.

“By spending time with those students, it taught me that

not all people are alike. I treasured helping those who

were not able to do the same things that I could.”

Since then, Smith has been an active volunteer and

dedicates her spare time to helping both children and

adults with disabilities.

Smith is completing her senior internship in a fifth-grade

classroom where she spends more than eight hours a

day teaching English, language arts, math, science, and

social studies.

After graduation, Smith plans to start teaching right

away. With already two elementary school teaching job

offers and more interviews lined up, she is anxious to

teach in her own classroom. “I’m ready to spread my

wings,” she says.
