//**Welcome to Billy C.'s Wikipage!**

**I am a UConn graduate ('06 BS in Elementary Ed, '07 MA in Curriculum and Instructional Design) I am currently teaching 3rd Grade in Hartford and believe deeply in the success urban students have. My focus is on providing all children the opportunities to succeed in life through education. I am happy to participating in the ACCESS Program as it allows for collaboration among teachers to create a better Math instruction. I've seen what great accomplishments my students have gained through participation with ACCESS. Please find below a few examples of different H.O.T. components.**

"I am a teacher who stands up for what is right against what is indecent, who is in favor of freedom against authoritarianism, who is a supporter of authority against freedom with no limits, and who is a defender of democracy against the dictatorship of right or left. I am a teacher who favors the permanent struggle against every form of bigotry and against the economic domination of individuals and social classes. I am a teacher who rejects the present system of capitalism, responsible for the aberration of misery in the midst of plenty.~" Paulo Freire
