Dawn Campbell
2023 S.P.A.R.K. Award Winner

Dawn is a special education teacher at Bronx Community Charter School for the past 9 years and this year marks her first (and the school’s first) year in a 12:2 setting. She holds degrees from Lehman College and Bank Street and attributes her approach as an educator to being a mother of four children, individualizing and creating meaningful learning experiences for all young children. Her S.P.A.R.K. nomination submission relayed Dawn as “an inspiring role model for her students and colleagues…demonstrating a deep committed to social justice, advocating for and supporting students who are often marginalized” and working to “empower her students to think critically about issues of equity and justice.” Listen to podcast episode where we interview Dawn about how she fosters inclusive environments at her school.
