Aves McKnight

Assistant Toddler and ME Teacher

What’s one of your favorite memories from your time at RMS?

Looking at the creatures outside with the kids! Seeing interesting insects, salamanders, and frogs and helping them get comfortable around beings that look and live so different from us

What’s something you love seeing students get excited about?

The world around them - their ability to see the little things really brings you back down to Earth with them. They appreciate the smallest detail and are curious about everything the natural environment shares with them. A child being excited about holding a worm is a beautiful thing

If you could choose any superpower, what would it be?

The ability to understand and communicate in any language (including the ones used by the animals and plants). Selectively though, I can imagine the cacophony the world would become otherwise

If you were a bug, what bug would you be and why?

A stick insect - I'm a little weird but pretty cool
