This is my fifth year teaching at MAE, but I was an elementary student here several years ago. I have taught lower elementary throughout my six years of teaching. I have a wonderful wife, who is a SPED teacher at MAUE, and two wonderful children, Evie (Fourth Grade) and John Auden (Second Grade). I graduated from Mississippi College with a degree in Elementary Education and a Masters of STEM Education. When I am not teaching, I spend time with my family, cycling, tending to plants, running, or helping with Cyclocross Kids bike program. I am thankful I have been called to this profession and will try my best to ensure understandings in my students that can be transferred into all areas of their lives. I am ecstatic to start the year with your children!
I will be using several means of communication to showcase what your children are pursuing in the class. They include:
Remind 101
Flipgrid
Newsletters
Let's get this learning party started!

We are super blessed to have Ms. Montgomery as our assistant this year! She will be in and out of my classroom to help guide students through their work. She loves this school, these children, and believes learning should be fun and active.
