Here's what people have said about Stacey:
- “Stacey
worked consistently to design instruction that reflected her keen understanding
of student needs and strengths. Refusing to go along with the common conception
that teaching children, especially those who are disadvantaged in the classroom,
is solely about identifying what they lack and struggle with, Stacey worked
hard to recognize students’ strengths and to scaffold instruction appropriately
from there.” Prof. Grace Enriquez, Lesley University (formerly of Teachers College
at Columbia University)
- “Stacey often shared with me the
extraordinary experiences she made available for her students, including those
that she funded through her overwhelmingly successful use of the website
DonorsChoose.org. Her students and their
families are, without a doubt, incredibly fortunate to have such a committed,
caring, intelligent, and knowledgeable teacher.
And the children and families in your school will be just as fortunate
to have her in their lives.” Prof. Stephanie R. Jones, University of
Georgia (formerly of Teachers College at Columbia University)
- “Stacey’s classroom is highly organized,
well-structured, and characterized by deep respect for the students. Her rapport with students is remarkable. She has connected with students with a wide
range of learning styles as well as some with significant social and emotional
challenges. She is an exemplar in
classroom management, pacing her instruction to keep her diverse range of
learners engaged.” Meg O’Leary and Sarah Friedman, Co-Directors of The Learning Community:
A Public Charter School
- "Ms. Shubitz was a teacher who took her work seriously. She always came to school prepared and eager to start the school day. She was well organized and made sure to follow through with the major facets of her lessons. Her students responded and participated in class discussions, activities, and projects." Dimitres Pantelidis, Principal of P.S. 171
- “Stacey brings to her work creativity, a strong work ethic, a collaborative spirit, and high expectations for herself and students. She diligently works to create a classroom environment with academic rigor that also allows students to succeed." Abigail Wilson, Instructional Coach at The Learning Community: A Public Charter School
