I am a dedicated special education teacher at Paint Branch Elementary School. I am passionate about movement and hands-on, engaging activities that help bring learning to life for my students. I firmly believe that all students can learn and grow at their own pace when provided with the right support, encouragement, and opportunities to succeed.

My name is Tess and I am a student leader and founder of Climate in Every Classroom, a youth-led initiative brings climate education into all subject areas and ensuring teachers have simplified resources and confidence to teach climate change. We are developing a workshop model led by a coalition of organizations for our volunteer’s K-12 teachers with continued follow-up throughout the school year designed to help schools easily integrate climate topics across disciplines and to make climate learning more accessible, and connected to everyday education. We’re looking to expand climate literacy and build practical, scalable approaches to environmental education within schools.
