“Chris, aka Mr Awesome! Is a positive force for good in our school. He teaches one of the most difficult classes at our school, the elementary severe behavior classroom. He does this with incredible patience, a heart full of love and a positive attitude that rivals Mary Poppins! Chris cares deeply about his students and because of this they trust him, which is the first step in helping them learn to connect with him and his staff. This connection allows them to be brave enough to let go of negative behaviors and embrace more positive ones as they make progress in their educational journey.
Chris is truly an amazing teacher and person and we are so fortunate to have him as part of our Hartvigsen Team.”
