Hello There!

My Name is Jonathan Faix. I will be teaching for my twelveth year in Pickens County: ten years at Jasper Middle School teaching 6th and 7th Grade Social Studies and Science; and two years at Pickens Junior High School teaching 7th Grade Social Studies and Science. I am also a Coach for the PJHS Cross Country teams and PHS Track and Field teams.

I graduated from Point University with degrees in Humanities (B.A.) and Music (B.S.), then from Kennesaw State University with a degree in Education (B.S.) GO OWLS!!!! I also hold an Honorary Masters degree in Chocolate Tasting from Hershey University. I hold a Georgia Educator Certificate in the following areas: Geography (6-12); History (6-12), Political Science (6-12); Economics (6-12); Middle Grades Social Studies (4-8); Middle Grades Science (4-8); Gifted In-Field.

But most importantly, in addition to my education and years of experience in teaching, I bring my experience from traveling the world and interacting with different cultures. I have traveled to 30 states in The United States, plus Washington D.C. Outside of the United States, I have traveled to Canada, Mexico, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Vatican City, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, and China.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my wife and son (a sophomore at KSU). Beyond traveling, I enjoy reading and watching Sci-fi and Fantasy, playing video games, camping and hiking, being outside, and watching HOCKEY.
