Gayhead Elementary School has been my home since the 1997-1998 school year. Grades 3, 4, and 5 have shown me immense kindness over the years and I learned a bit from each of them. Most of my experience is in 5th grade, so I feel most at home here. As an educator, I hope to teach my students at least as much as they teach me. We are all always learning together. I have an amazing wife and two children. My son is just starting college and my daughter is in 11th grade at Arlington High School! I try to use the empathy earned from parenting my own children whenever I communicate with students and parents. I also try to keep it in mind while assigning homework! Finally, I have been so very fortunate to share my time, experiences, and love of learning with Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Bianco, and Mrs. Fakhoury. I know this will be yet another wonderful year!
