Bellwood-Antis Middle School teacher, Mr. Partner, is an inspiration in the classroom, on the baseball field, and in the community. This is Mr. Partner’s 25th year as a teacher. He spent 10 years at West Branch Highschool, and 15 years at Bellwood-Antis.
“My favorite part about teaching is having the opportunity to make a difference in my students’ lives,” Mr. Partner said.
He is a assistant coach for the high School baseball coach, and a middle school English teacher.
Mr. Partner has watched all three of his kids come up through his class. This is the first time in six years that Mr. P has not had one of his children in the classroom.
Mr. Partner has always been passionate about teaching and coaching, even though it may come with challenges.
“Yes, it is challenging to balance both coaching and teaching; however, it is the life I have chosen and wouldn’t want it any other way,” Mr. Partner quoted.
