Hey Parents! My name is Aaron Pannell. I am 22 years old, and love working with kids. I am looking forward to working with your child this year. I have been working with children for seven years now, and I hope to see each child succeed in school. I have worked for 4 years at the Spears YMCA as a camp counselor, and I have also worked as an afterschool care teacher at Center United Methodist Church for three years. I am studying Early Childhood Education at GTCC. Feel free to contact me with any questions.
Hello Everyone! It has been a pleasure to work at Oak Ridge Weekday School for the last year and a half. The relationships that I've built with you and your children have truly enriched my life. Being a part of your children's lives and spurring them to grow as individuals has proven to be challenging, meaningful, and very rewarding! I am glad to be a part of such a great team of educators at Oak Ridge Weekday School!
Over the past year, I have watched my love for kids grow into a passion to teach. I did not have this career path in mind when I began college in the fall of 2008. But, after working at Oak Ridge Weekday School and volunteering my time at Stokesdale Elementary, my eyes have been opened to a rewarding career! With that being said, I will be returning to school in the fall to pursue a degree in Education. Aside from my education, I have other passions that I would like to incorporate into my classroom. Having pursued my Eagle Scout Award and being registered as an Assistant Scoutmaster, I believe it is safe to say that I love the outdoors. Scouting taught me the benefits of working with a team and how to manage one. Along with the many values and skills, Scouting also taught me to "Be Prepared" for whatever life gives me. These are the same universal values that I aim to teach your children.
I hope to positively impact every child that comes through my care. The rewards from washing paint-covered tables and bending down to un-knot countless numbers of shoes pales in comparison to watching children grow and seeing them learn to make good decisions. Spending time helping your children to develop into moral, upstanding citizens is my goal at Oak Ridge Weekday School.
Parents, I thank you for all you do to support your children and our work at Oak Ridge Weekday School. With your cooperation, I plan to make this year the best yet! If you need to contact me with any comments, questions, or concerns, please feel free to send me an email at:
