Welcome to my classroom, where my students read, write, speak, lead and find a place for all of their gifts and talents to be expressed in the classroom! As you can see from my classroom picture, I teach all males. I teach ELA 10 for one of the first and only all male academies in DC Public Schools. Our program is called the Brilliant Brotherhood of Ballou and is a separate academy within Ballou Senior High School. Our goals are to provide our young men with a new and avant garde learning environment that will help them develop into well rounded critically conscious young men. Our pillars are: scholarship, leadership, knowledge of self, service to community, and accountability.
