Campus ChampionTeaching means giving your all for your students each day. But even among teachers, senior Ariana Silverman proved herself a Campus Champion when she saved a student’s life. Ariana was a student teacher at Oak Park Elementary School in Brentwood, N.Y., when a choking child in the cafeteria led her to perform CPR, dislodging the food from their throat. Having previously been CPR certified, she was ready to act when needed. Ariana says she wants to become a teacher because she believes every child deserves to feel loved, safe and seen in the classroom. She’s well on her way.
