Adrienne Henderson-Cole is a first grade teacher and mentor. After teaching for several years, she achieved her National Board Certification and moved on to become the National Board Instructional Coordinator in Maryland. Within five years of her being there, the program grew by more than 75%! She transitioned into the role of National Board Project Director for Arizona K12 Center, which involved moving her family across the country. Shortly after that, she returned to public schools as an instructional coach and TAP Master Teacher. Adrienne’s passion for teaching is fueled by the students and their abilities to grasp new concepts, the families and their commitments, and the excellent team of teachers she supports. Outside of the classroom, Adrienne finds herself creating art. Between paper crafting, scrap-booking or mixed media, she has set a goal to develop a piece of art each day, as it gives her a sense of peace.
