Mr. Benjamin Bohannon — ELA

My name is Benjamin Bohannon, and I am an English teacher at Thomson High School.

“Watch your thoughts; they become your words. Watch your words; they become your actions. Watch your actions; they become your habits. Watch your habits; they become your character. Watch your character; it becomes your destiny.” --- Lao Tzu

In my classroom, I strive to put this quote into action each day. My students will not only be given opportunities to think critically about the words of others but also the chance to discover and develop their own voices. Through this process, I hope each of my students will better understand the characters of those around them, gain a deeper sense of their personal identities, and take ownership of who they aspire to become.
