Hello Schimelpfenig Panthers!
I am David Taylor, and I am so excited to be starting my SECOND year teaching Sixth Grade English here at Schimelpfenig Middle School!
I originally grew up in South Florida, but moved to Texas in 2011. After completing my B.S. in Interdisciplinary Studies at Texas A&M Commerce, I began my teaching career with PISD. This will be my 10th year teaching, and my second year here at Schim.
I thoroughly love and enjoy both reading and writing and you can often find me at home lying on the couch with a book in hand (usually a Stephen King novel). My wife is also a teacher in PISD (Math at Guinn Special Programs), and because we both have the time off together, we frequently travel during our breaks from school. I also enjoy cooking, trying to keep my garden alive (especially a challenge in the Texas heat), and playing video games.
Here's to a great 23-24 school year!
