Frank Kitchens, Jr

The reason that I love teaching is to shape and mold young minds at an early age. Work daily to prepare my students for their future.

Tell us why you became a teacher

I became a teacher so that I could make a difference in a child life. My classroom motto is “Working daily to prepare my students for their future, I can make a difference.”

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

My most memorable moment of my teaching experience was just last week when a student reached their star reading and math goal. I teach third grade, they went from 2.9 to 4.2. The student was very excited and started to cry and tell me thank you for the extra push.

What would you do with the $25,000?

With the $25,000 I would be sure to buy supplies for the school that are needed. I would also share with a needy family in the school or the community. I could not do all that before I pay my tithes to the church that I attend. What is left I would treat myself for a getaway.
