Congratulations, Mr. Jackson!
|
Mr. Jackson, along with two other OUSD teachers, has been named 2020-2021 Teacher of the Year! Chair of the P.E. Department, a member of the District P.E. Leadership Team, and an active member of the Black Teacher Project. He serves on the instruction/planning team for the California Physical Education Workshop where he teaches classroom management skills and restorative justice techniques to educators from around the state. Mr. Jackson also plans and facilitates professional development workshops for other P.E. teachers across the District. It’s no surprise that Mr. Jackson is a former West Contra Costa Ed Fund Excellence in Education Teacher of the Year award winner. He’s a coach who always gives feedback and supports new teachers enthusiastically, eager to continue learning and growing as an educator. He has high expectations for all of his students, confident in their ability to engage in rigorous physical activities, learn a variety of sports and teamwork skills, and show student leadership. His teaching space is known as a safe haven for students to try new things without fear and to grow in their social/emotional skills. It’s clear how much students love to be in his classroom by their consistent 99.7% participation rate. Urban Promise Academy Principal Tierre Mesa said, “Mr. Jackson is a highly effective teacher leader who impacts the lives of students every day. He is highly regarded by his students and coworkers for his dedication and expertise.”
