Making My Mark 📍 • Senior, Middle Grades Education Major at Fort Valley State University • Aspiring Educator in the K-12 School System • Member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.

My first year of teaching has finally kicked off as today was Open House at Perry Middle School! Welcome to Mr. Nooks' 8th Grade ELA and SS class. I want to first thank God for placing me in the right places at the right time. I also want to thank Dr. Lazunia Frierson, Ed. D., Dr. Heath Burch, and the Perry Middle School Administration for taking a risk and hiring me as a student in FVSU's Education Program, allowing me to complete my last semester of Direct Teaching. That’s history in itself, and I plan to make my MARK. Mrs. Duran has been the glue for all of this, as she is my mentoring teacher and is always there in case I need anything. Although I’m nervous, I know I am more than capable. Let’s work. Houston County Board of Education #blackmenineducation #Alphamenineducation

Take it all in! Enjoy every moment! Track data on your scholars. Create moments of breakthrough with your scholars. Most of all don't get distracted when times get rough! Give your scholars room to grow and create a shared governance that produces equity amongst your scholars! You got this!!!!!

Congrats my guy, Please take it one day at a time. Remember that the ultimate goal is to ensure the children’s education. While there may be numerous challenges along the way, if you maintain focus on your objective, the rewards will be well worth it.

LET’S GO, Mr. Nooks! Congratulations and you got this! Best advice- don’t rush it and pause to think when situations push you outside your comfort zone.
