Colleagueship:
Principle 11: "The educator works as a team member and establishes collaboriative relationships with school colleagues, parents, agencies, and others in the broader community to support students' learning and well-being and to implement the schools goals and articulate curriculum."

Advocacy:
Principle 12: "The educator recognizes multiple influences on students inside and outside the school and accesses appropriate systems of support for schools."

In other words advocacy means that teachers should be the voice for students who can't advocate for themselves. An example would be if a student doesn't have a snack, a teacher could keep snacks in a drawer for their students.

Colleagueship is being able to work with co-workers to ensure that the students have the best learning experience they possibly can. It also means being able to work with parents, and the school system to make sure that students have the support they need to learn.

Our team motto is: Education is not about the teacher; it's about the students.
