Kristen Vaisvila, MAT - Northshore Education Consortium

Kristen is the Consortium’s ESL Teacher and ELE coordinator. She also works with their multilingual students as they learn English and she makes sure that their families are receiving information about their child’s education in a language that they can understand. Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are topics that are relevant to her career and also fundamental to her belief and desire that all people should be allowed the opportunity to contribute in a meaningful way, regardless of their race, gender, ability/disability, sexual orientation, or any other aspect of their identity. Kristen got involved in the diversity initiative because she wanted to bring more equity and justice to the educational community.
