A little about Coach O.


Hello Families!

In the classroom I follow two core beliefs... One, I truly believe in Dr. Chapman's 5 Love Languages.  We all respond to love in many different ways and feel loved in different ways and I can only hope to find out a child's and teach to it.  Second, I believe in Howard Gardner's Multiple Intelligences because we all have strengths in different areas. 

Finally, during the summers I mentor teachers around the county teaching them STEM and how to embed real life authentic activities into their classroom.  Teachers then design units around what they learned and implement it in their classroom.  At York, we tend to fail fast and often at school so we can reflect and improve!  I'm blessed to be a part of many organizations where teachers coach one another and build better leaders in ourselves, the staff we teach, and the students we serve!

Favorite Quotes:

Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 New International Version (NIV)

9 Two are better than one,

    because they have a good return for their labor:

10 If either of them falls down,

    one can help the other up.

But pity anyone who falls

    and has no one to help them up.


To the WORLD you may only be ONE person, but to ONE person you may be the WORLD.  (Mark Twain)




Matthew 17:20  (NIV)

He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you."


What others say and do tell something about them, not you.  What you do or say tells your story...  (Unknown)
