Stories about our members-Diana Rubio at Kemp Mills Elementary

Diana is biliterate in English and Spanish, and she is a great role-model for all the students in my classroom! She supports all the students in the class and has demonstrated a strong commitment to their learning. She has been planning a visit to the University of Maryland for all the 4^thand 5^th grade students in our school. She got the field trip approved by presenting her proposal to the principal in our school. She was really excited about that! She is planning to make this a memorable experience for all our students by involving other AmeriCorps Program participants as well. Diana got the inspiration to make this experience possible after talking to our students and realizing that most of them did not know anything about any local universities. We are all excited and look forward to this field trip that will connect the classroom to the real-world. Gracias Diana for all your enthusiasm and commitment, si se puede!!!   (Supervisor Juan Figueroa)
