Hello Washington Families!

My name is Mr. Colvin, and I am excited to be joining the Washington Elementary community as a second-grade teacher! Before becoming a teacher, I spent more than 20 years in business leadership and have also spent many years coaching children through jiu-jitsu. Those experiences helped me discover how much I love teaching, mentoring, and helping kids build confidence.

I believe the classroom should be a place where students feel safe, supported, challenged, and excited to learn. My goal is to create a classroom community where we stay curious, work hard, learn from our mistakes, and celebrate each other's growth.

Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family, coaching and training jiu-jitsu, traveling, and staying active. I'm looking forward to an amazing year of learning and adventure with our second graders!
