Mr. Josh Baloney
SPED Department
ELA 7-8
Room #436
Originally from Louisiana, I moved to Arizona in 2012, (7 years after being affected by Hurricane Katrina), in order to get a fresh start on life in a much less chaotic environment. I originally intended to enter the medical field as a career, but over the years i was moved to continue the education I started, pre-Katrina, and become an educator.
This is my third year teaching in any capacity. I am completing my degree, (Business of Secondary Education), at GCU. I have one semester remaining, and I'm grinding away. Oh, and I'm also the Head Coach of the girls' basketball team, and the girl's Flag football team. Basketball is my first love.lol
I love what I am doing, and I have a passion for education, apparently. Something I never thought I'd have as a youngster. The lesson I teach kids about life is, if it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you. Struggle is a good thing, because without it we wouldn't know progress.
