This is something that I still need more time to finalize. Being in the classroom my entire career, I know I want to help as many students as I can attain the goals they have in life. Within the next few months, I hope to complete the necessary courses and attain my Principal Certification. I will then have plenty of time to decide whether or not my place is back in the classroom or possibly on the administrative side of education. I've been very fortunate to spend the majority of my career in the Methacton School District and leaving the classroom and potentially the district would be a very tough decision.

Although having another degree provides the options to change my career path, what I enjoy most about education is working directly with the students. There is no greater joy than seeing a student accomplish a goal that they had previously never thought possible.

I hope that this course can further develop my skills in regards to communicating not only with the students and parents, but also with my peers and others in education. With communication via email/text/social networking being easily misunderstood, I would like to refine my skills so any messages that I send are clear and concise.

Although I recently resigned, I had been the Girls Varsity Head Coach for both the Winter and Spring seasons at Methacton High School for the past 12 years. We are actually the last team in our district to win a PIAA State Championship, which we did in 2008!!

I spent a couple of years in Rising Sun, MD before landing an 8th grade mathematics position in the Methacton School District. I've been in the district a very long time and have seen many changes take place over the years. What has always been true through those changes, kids come first! My wife and sister are also in education and it's never too early to get my son ready for his school-age years
