The spotlight is on Mr. Ashton Hutchinson, coming all the way from Hattiesburg, Mississippi. Mr. Hutchinson is a graduate from THE University of Southern Mississippi. This might be his first year teaching, but he is already managing to juggle Life Science, Physical Science, and Biology I with ease. His inspiration for teaching came from some of his past teachers. These teachers spoke the truth and helped him with the skills he needed to succeed. He intends to do the same for his students, which makes their generation ready for what life has to come outside of a school setting. His goal for the year is to settle into this new environment and make an impact on every one of his students' lives. Fun Fact: When he's not fighting to help these students thrive, he is working on his garden in Old Metairie.
