Rochelle Brown is the 2021 Connecticut Teacher of the Year and teaches Kindergarten in Windsor, Connecticut. Each Fall, she has the students in her classroom create posters of themselves that she keeps up all year long. These posters are filled with affirming messages from their classmates, and they help build a strong sense of community. She feels that the very act of allowing students to feel seen, heard, loved, and acknowledged is necessary to their success and progress.
Presently, Rochelle serves as the chair of Poquonock School’s Equity Committee. She has offered professional development opportunities for her colleagues and created an Instagram page, kidlitlove8, to bring awareness to multicultural children’s books and the importance of representation for all children. She continues to serve as a union representative for the Windsor Education Association, always ensuring that her colleagues are knowledgeable of their rights and responsibilities as professional educators.
