Travis Lawton

I love teaching because I’m able to make a difference in someone’s life. I don’t only teach classroom materials I teach real life scenarios.

Tell us why you became a teacher

When I was younger I use to dream about being a director of bands. As I got older I’ll play school by myself, the passion to encourage and help younger people has always been in me.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable experience is sending my first senior off to college on a band scholarship.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I’m not sure but what I do know is some of that money will be donated to the school where I’m employed.
