Jack Berger

I grew up in Memphis, Tennessee, one block behind the Graceland Mansion.

 

I have 2 children. My hobbies are all sports, especially golf.  Playing the drums is also enjoyable.  I also enjoy cooking. 

 

While there are many components to the education of a child, I feel the student/teacher relationship is one of the most important.

Through the years as an educator, I feel fortunate to have the experience of working with students from kindergarten to the 12th grade and working with all types of students with various abilities.  I am grateful for my teaching career and grateful for the students, teachers, and administrators that I have worked with along the way. The 2023/2024 school year will be my 32nd year of teaching.  For the past nine years, I have taught driver's education in summer school sessions. The 2023/2024 school year will be my 7th year teaching driver's education during the regular school year.
