“Currently, I am completing my student teaching practicum in which I am present in an elementary school for eight hours five days a week.\u00a0 Fortunately, this experience is being completed in-person.\u00a0 Through this experience, I have been able to bridge the gap between school and a true working environment.\u00a0 My time working at the elementary school has been the most enjoyable experience and I will miss my students dearly when it comes to an end.\u00a0 An additional exciting update is that I received my Aggie Ring. \u00a0It was a great honor and joyful experience.\u00a0 The scholarship provided has allowed me to experience all these joyful moments and pursue my passion.\u00a0 Thank you very much.”<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\"Asset\n\tAnalise Lopez<\/strong>
