 What this fellowship offered me was an opportunity to build bridges with another culture. And the really unique thing about this field study that I was on in Peru is that I wasn't just building bridges to another culture, but I was doing it alongside other amazing educators that were also invited to join the fellowship. And I think the NEA Foundation for me really changed my life a lot. It gave me an opportunity to really deepen my perspective and understanding about the need for global education. And global education is not just being able to have conversations with people, but it's about finding those similarities and those differences and celebrating them together. One of the things that I have kind of carried through with me is my experience when I was in Peru and just thinking back to what these village people had to do in order to sustain their own life and their own way of living and trying to think about things like waste and water and things like that. What can I do in my rural community with my students that's kind of building on that idea so that we're not being so wasteful? Public education is kind of this beautiful place that invites all children, all families to be there. We're all learning together. And I think the unique thing about public education is that we all have those same needs. And I think that also becomes a challenge for public education as well, to kind of focus on some things around sustainability or needs that we can work on together collaboratively to help the world.
