A.J Fletcher – Teacher

¨I think my high school experience here at Englewood has changed the type of person I am today by definitely giving me more patience and giving me the ability to see high school kids in a different light. Also gave me more empathy towards people and an understanding that high school can be tough and a formidable time in young kids’ lives and ultimately will shape who they are and how they become successful.¨

¨ The advice I’d give to someone that is struggling is to always try to look at things on the bright side, to me everything happens for a reason. If you’re going through a hard time it could potentially be a sign that you need to make some changes or surround yourself with different people. I always find that if I look at things as learning experiences, it makes that difficult time easier.¨
