PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION

The goal of any education program is to produce students that are career or college-ready.  I believe we as individual teachers and collective school faculties must teach students in a manner that attends to their social and emotional wellbeing.  Once a teacher/student relationship is formed on mutual trust and respect then curriculum, instruction, and assessment is much easier to address.

ABOUT MR. HENSON

I have been in education for 25 years.  My first teaching position was being the fourth 1st grade teacher for a group of students.  Later, I spent four years as a special education teacher for students with low incidence, significant disabilities.  I taught 4th grade for a decade.  I also taught middle and high school for several years.  During these years I was a teacher, instructional coach, assistant principal, and principal.  I've also contracted with the Louisiana Department Of Education to help schools and teachers meet the needs of students with significant disabilities.  I was the assistant principal for two years at Rosepine High School and now the principal at Pickering High School.
