John Ruff
Teacher/Coach/IT Specialist
I am a 2nd year teacher who wants to help out my school overall. I love assisting our students and our teachers. I find that at Gregory-Lincoln we all buy into a team approach and every child in the school is OUR CHILD. I love sports and played collegiate soccer for 4 years at University of St. Thomas in Houston just down the street from Gregory-Lincoln. I love seeing our students make academic and social progress and I enjoy seeing our teachers assisting students day and night. Our jobs don't end and I know that as a team we are constantly helping our students. As a teacher and a coach and a parent, sometimes I just do not feel like there is ever enough time in a day to complete everything on my plate. That is why I am reaching out through PledgeCents! I want to increase my productivity so I can work smarter, and be a better teacher for my students. I also want to find ways to increase the productivity of our school overall so that teachers can continue to maximize their time and students can really take advantage of the sacred instructional time. I know our children have many needs, and it is my goal to meet and exceed their expectations.
