Mr. Garrett

Taught art at Maple Ridge Secondary School

  • 🇺🇸 Lansing, Michigan, United States
  • Maple Ridge Secondary School
  • 2004 to 2025
  • English
I taught art at Maple Ridge Secondary School in Lansing from 2004 to 2025. Most days I taught Grade 8, and I always had a bag of oranges in my drawer. Over the years I had 1,050 students pass through my room. A few of them became teachers themselves, which still makes me smile. Hearing from old faces is the best part of my week.

More about Mr. Garrett

Some of my favorite memories are from the school trip to the coast, where nothing went to plan and everything turned out fine.

What gifts mean to Mr. Garrett: Honestly the messages mean more, but a gift would help me buy supplies for my new classroom.
