All of us have had those times in life where we tried to do something, only to receive results we did not want. What are the things that helped you overcome and try again. The learning journey is filled with many of these setbacks. We must chose, will I try this again or not. But, what happens when you are not able to overcome the second time or the third try. Many students who struggle with behavior issues struggle to stay in class and do not even have the chance to see the information that is presented. The results compound on one another.
How do we overcome this, hopefully the same way that you overcame it the last time you failed at something. Someone comes along and says you can do this, I have faith in you, and we will get it next time. Now, dust yourself off and get back to work.

Welcome to Mr White's Website. This site will feature information relevant to Mr White's Classroom and useful information for students, parents, and fellow educators. Mr White's educational career began in 1991 when he was in the fifth grade. His class participated in a book-buddies project with a first grade class and he became hooked on the educational process. One comment from the first grade teacher (who noticed him reading upside down, so the student could see the picture) made a huge transformation in his life.
Mr White's educational career has taken him many places, he has had experiences ranging from being responsible for high school student's living in college dorms, teaching students with challenging behaviors, assisting students in overcoming behavioral difficulties, and . He has worked hard to assist students from a disadvantaged background to actualize success in life. It is both challenging and humbling work, however, it is highly rewarding.
