Additionally, I am the Drama and Debate coach. I love teaching high school! I decided to obtain&nbsp;my certificate in the ABCTE program because it allowed for me to rely on my life experiences outside of the classroom which has allowed me to augment my teaching with my past and current experiences. The students enjoy hearing about my past experiences as a lawyer and my current experiences as mayor of our town.&#8221; <\/em><br>*Cover photo is from Brent&#8217;s Idaho classroom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you need payment support?
