Statement
of
Teaching
Philosophy
Teaching
a
successful
class
energizes
me.
Adult
learners
who
yearn
for
knowledge
inspire
me.
My
internal
motivation
reaches
a
high
point
when
students
are
excited
about
the
course
topic
and
actively
participate
in
the
class.
One
of
the
most
satisfying
aspects
of
teaching
is
making
a
positive
impact
on
a
student’s
academic
life
and
helping
them
achieve
their
goals.
I
believe
that
students
learn
best
when
they
are
active
participants
in
the
class.
I
feel
that
students
grow
as
learners
and
critical
thinkers
when
they
can
relate
theory
to
real
life
situations,
and
are
challenged
to
think
and
analyze
outside
the
box.
I
like
to
use
examples
of
experiences
from
my
own
life’s
work
to
help
students
translate
theory
into
practice
and
to
apply
new
knowledge
to
their
work
and
life.
This
is
often
achieved
in
a
classroom
discussion
format
with
peer
response,
case
study,
and
critical
analysis.

SCHOOL
CONSTRUCTION
EXPERIENCE
–
IN
SUMMARY:
➢ Lumpkin
County
High
School;
Assistant
Principal
&
Vocational
Supervisor:
Served
on
planning
committee
for
the
construction
of
a
new
high
school
and
athletic
field,
stadium
and
facilities.
Also
worked
with
the
planning
committee
for
communicating
the
priorities
for
the
E-­‐Splost
(Optional
Sales
Tax)
which
covered
the
cost
of
construction
for
the
new
school
project.
➢ Towns
County
High
School;
Principal:
Served
on
the
planning
committee
for
developing
the
design
and
plans
for
a
new
elementary
school
and
renovations
to
the
middle
and
high
school.
Prior
to
this
construction
project,
all
three
levels
of
school
were
housed
in
one
building.
Also
worked
with
the
board
in
meeting
with
the
community
regarding
the
bond
referendum
and
E-­‐Splost
funding
for
the
construction
and
renovation
projects.
➢ Atkinson
County
Schools;
Superintendent:
I
inherited
a
new
high
school
building
under
construction
and
approximately
85%
complete
with
eight
(8)
weeks
prior
to
the
new
school
year.
As
superintendent,
I
spear-­‐headed
the
efforts
to
bring
the
budget
under
control,
examine
and
adjust
the
plan
for
the
completion
of
the
new
high
school
and
expedited
all
coordinated
efforts
between
the
site
and
project
engineer,
state
and
local
government
officials,
the
Georgia
Department
of
Education’s
Construction
and
New
Projects
Division,
as
well
as
the
board
of
education
with
whom
I
served.
As
superintendent,
I
also
coordinated
and
managed
the
efforts
to
secure
a
different
engineering
firm
to
design
an
athletic
facility
that
included
a
new
high
school
football
stadium,
new
baseball
and
softball
fields,
practice
fields
for
all
sports,
a
new
athletic
field
house,
complete
with
a
new
irrigation
system
that
was
eco-­‐friendly.
The
new
high
school
projects
were
completed
on
time
and
under
the
projected
budget
of
$16,000,000
that
was
allotted.
➢ Atkinson
County
Schools;
Superintendent:
Additionally,
as
superintendent,
I
lead
and
managed
the
efforts
for
purchasing
and
securing
an
additional
15
acres
for
the
elementary
school
in
Willachoochee,
Georgia,
which
proved
to
be
a
crucial
and
most
beneficial
decision
two
years
later,
as
the
school
was
expanded
to
accommodate
student
growth.
