My name is Jasmine Avan. I grew up in East St. Louis, Illinois. I am the oldest girl of 4 younger brothers. I've been at Shaw VPA for 2 years as a Sped ICA. I am currently in school working towards my associate degree In early childhood education. I chose this field because I am very passionate about working with young students with disabilities and helping them gain the skills they need to become lifelong learners. I am looking forward to an amazing school year!
