PCS Alumni. First Year Teacher. His First Grading Period.
Oct. 20, 2022
Dylan Floyd, a district first-year teacher, has reached a milestone in his young teaching career. The Morgan Fitzgerald Middle School World History teacher finished the first quarter and for the first time, had to give his students grades.
"You are a teacher and want students to succeed," Floyd said. You don’t want them to fail.”
Floyd said he sat with his students and helped them map out how to get to the grade that they want.
“That was a learning experience for me because I really got the chance to see how different kids are and how differently they apply themselves,” Floyd said. “But I asked myself, what can I do to make sure that they succeed in my class.”
PCS will follow Mr. Floyd’s journey as a first-year teacher throughout the school year. This is the second installment. Read the first installment article.
