"Be open to differences with the people that you work with. We're in the business of working with people. From the people who are the teachers to the students, to the parents. We're all individuals, but we're all people. We need to be conscious of the fact that we need to be forgiving of each other, we need to help each other out and we need to lean on each other. It's okay to do all of that. It's okay to ask for help. It's okay to show a little bit of emotion and it's important to show empathy toward everybody."
