About Me

"Good morning, good afternoon, and good night, superstars! ???? I am SO excited that you get to be in my class this year! I feel like the luckiest teacher in Tennessee because I get to learn and grow right alongside all of you. My name is James, and I’ve been teaching wonderful kids just like you for 16 years. I’m a special education teacher here in Tennessee, and I have a Doctorate in Special Education—which just means I went to school for a really long time so I could be the very best teacher for YOU. I love watching my students light up when they learn something new, when they finally “understand it,” or when they feel proud of themselves. That’s my favorite part of every single day! So here’s my promise to you: We’re going to have fun, we’re going to work hard, and we’re going to celebrate every win—big or small—together. You’ve got this… and I’ve got you! ???? Now, let’s make this the best school year ever. Are you ready?!"
