Every Student

Over the course of her 35 year career, Dr. Patricia Frazier has recognized the power of connecting with each and every student. Thanks to the guidance of her Economic and Calculus teachers, she realized that she had an aptitude for math - which led her to a career in education that she never would have imagined. “Integration did not seem to serve us well.” As a student growing up in Alabama, Dr. Pat attended segregated schools for her entire K-12 experience. In spite of this, she notes the incredible sense of diversity and support that existed, including a strong sense of community, especially among the descendants of the Clotilda. Dr. Frazier speaks about having and not-having, the lack of resources in some school districts, and why it’s important to help students pursue their interests, so that no student is ever left by the wayside.
