Brown has 19 years of teaching experience. He started as a fourth grade teacher at School Street Elementary. He has been at North Drive since 1995.
“Through the years, it has been so fulfilling to hear a previously unsuccessful child exclaim, ‘I can read now, Mr. Brown!’ It doesn’t get any better than that,” he said.
