STUDENT TESTIMONIAL “Sage prepared me in a lot of ways, but I think the biggest thing I took away from Sage was how to be a reflective teacher. Trends in education change; policies and culture change from one district to another. If your education trained you to be reflective as Sage did for me, you can adjust to anything.” – Patrick Farley ’12 (Florida Teacher of the Year Finalist)
