Institute. At Northeast Middle School, WBAL twice saluted her as a
Class Act teacher. The faculty at Northeast also elected her as
Teacher of the Year.
Ms. Loftin was born

has expanded the span of her readiness with undergraduate and graduate
studies at North Carolina Central University, Bowie State University, St.
John’s College in Annapolis, and Goucher College

Fearless in her plight to educate children,
Ms. Loftin strives to exemplify the virtues and values we seek to inspire
in children. There is no one way but whatever way.
“We want our
children trained as intelligent human beings should be . . .
They have a right to
know, to think, to aspire.”
~ W.E.B. DuBois ~
