Jonathan Rocks Email & Phone Number

I am a 6th grade Language Arts teacher at Oakridge Middle School. I am going into my fifth year of teaching and am certified in 6-12 English Language Arts, 6-12 Social Studies, and K-6 Elementary Education. I currently hold an ESOL endorsement and am completing my reading endorsement. My goal as an educator is to teach in a way that makes reading and writing come alive to my students. This is an important step for my students to take ownership in their learning regardless of their ability level. I have taught intensive, regular, and advanced Language Arts which has allowed me to sharpen my skills as an educator.Currently, I am working on completing my masters in educational leadership and my career goal is to one day be a school principal. I want to some day create a campus wide learning environment where every student feels like a part of the learning community and is able to learn to their greatest potential. Being that I am currently a teacher I feel that I can bring my educational skills and transcend them into becoming a highly effective school administrator in the near future.
