He looks to bring a creative flair to pedagogical approaches and curriculum development which he strengthened in his former roles of Department Head of Humanities and Approaches to Teaching and Learning Coordinator. Jason’s experience with teaching both MYP and DP has allowed him to align the programs to better prepare middle school students to excel in high school and beyond. He pours his enthusiasm into his lessons to spark the curiosity of the world encouraging students to become lifelong learners.
