Three years ago, Mr. Marshall walked through the CHS doors to be a Spanish teacher for the first time.
The reason he wanted to teach Spanish was that he was not an excellent Spanish student in high school, but when he started participating in class, he began to become intrigued. That later manifested into a desire to teach Spanish to students.
“I think it’s important and I wanted to pass that on to other people. It’s been one of the greatest things I’ve done with my time and energy.”
Mr. Marshall looks up to many people at CHS because of their impact on the school. However, the people he looks up to the most are Mr. Pitt, Ms. Horne, and Mr. Davis.
“I look up to Mr. Pitts’s positivity and perseverance. I also look up to Jen Horne and Mr. Davis. They give good examples of positivity and they think about education in a more alternative way which I appreciate.”
Some days can be rough, especially considering cell phones, Covid, homework, and other factors. Combine it with teenagers and it gets pretty eventful.
“ ‘Often in the course of human events, it becomes necessary to earn a crust by the sweat of one’s brow.’ That statement has taught me that even when many teenagers are clowning me mercilessly, I’m at least not sweating somewhere on a roof helplessly.”
When asked about his interests he said, “I like to play tennis competitively, mountain biking and playing music. I also enjoy building things. I have been building a stone wall for a retaining wall all summer which is for a patio.”
By the year 2025, his greatest wish is to be the one and only god emperor of CHS and for everyone else at CHS to bow before him. In tennis, he aspires to have the boys and girls tennis teams ranked #1 nationally.
Mr. Marshal thinks the school can be improved and has a few ideas on how. He wants to improve the teaching and working environment for the students and teachers during the school day.
His passion for teaching makes him such an asset to the CHS community and he will continue to contribute to improving the school.
