" As a family, we have always found Tanveer to be thoughtful, caring, and unflappable. My daughter worked closely with Tanveer as school president, and particularly appreciated the way Tanveer guided the student council with purpose and foresight while having the flexibility to give students space to forge their own paths. She welcomed our family with our unique needs and preferences, and was encouraging and open to working with us on special projects. It was clear that she took the time to get to know each child personally and individually, and she worked behind the scenes to support teachers in providing for each one individually. "-Rebecca Fulop
