Michael is a graduate of St. Joseph Christian School in St. Joseph, Missouri. He is currently a student at Southwest Baptist University in Bolivar working on a major in Mathematics Education.
Michael notes, "Since I have been involved in a rural community my whole life, I have interest in wanting to give back as a teacher in a rural setting. I desire to build lifetime relationships, foster a sense of family and support my students as they grow and develop during their high school careers. I want to impact the next generation and give them the best chance to succeed. I firmly believe that a rural school district is a great place to do so."
A college professor shares, "Michael has strong mathematical content knowledge and good communication skills. Beyond that, he is a person of high character, dependable and trustworthy. He will relate well to high school students and will be, not only, a great mathematics teacher, but also a strong positive influence on his students' lives.
