All About Me
Welcome to my teacher website! I am beginning my 10th year of teaching and third year of teaching at Model Middle School. My background is in military operations and law enforcement. I served in the Marine Corps as a Infantryman from 2001-2005 and completed 3 combat tours to Iraq. Furthermore, I have worked in law enforcement as a Probation Officer, a Parole Officer, Arrest Team Coordinator, and a Task Force Officer. I am married to Tiffany Evans, who is also a teacher at Model Middle School. I have three awesome kids Faith, Brock, and Paisley Glenn (Pae).
Degrees and Certifications:
I graduated from Pepperell High School in 2001, Georgia Highlands with a Associate's Degree in Criminal Justice and Middle Grades Education, Shorter University with a Bachelor of Science in Middle Grades Education (Social Studies, Language Arts), and Liberty University with a Master's Degree in Criminal Justice: Forensic Psychology.
My Philosophy of Education:
It is important to me that students understand the importance of routine and structure to be successful in both the classroom and in life. As we learn the standards set forth in Science and Social Studies, we will explore many fun and difficult concepts throughout the year. It is important to me in my class that students are able to relate to different concepts within the topic of discussion and that they are able to formulate their own viewpoints on the subject matter. Furthermore, I find that through hands on learning students will be able to do things in class that allow them to make a connection to reality. It is my personal goal that students are treated with fairness, firmness, and consistency to ensure that they are learning.
