Mr. Watson is Easton Valley’s Junior High Social Studies teacher. Mr. Watson has been teaching for three years at Easton Valley. When growing up, he participated in Boy Scouts and loved to teach younger scouts different skills. Teaching younger members was something he was very good at and Boy Scouts became the reason he started teaching. Being able to make an impact in all of the lives of the students he interacts with is Mr. Watson’s favorite part of being a teacher. He enjoys teaching American History the most because it is easily relatable and interesting.

Outside the classroom, Mr. Watson likes to watch sports, renovate his house, watch Star Wars movies, and hang out with his friends and family. When a social studies position opened up at Easton Valley, he knew it was the right fit for him. Mr. Watson is passionate about social studies and enjoys teaching in a small district because it allows him to maximize his impact on his students.
