Teacher Tales: Mr. Johnson

If you’re walking down the second floor towards the office, you’ll probably see Mr. Johnson. Mr. Johnson is a new 7th and 8th grade social studies teacher here at DHHL, and he teaches in room 207. He taught first grade at St. Nicholas School in Minersville before coming to Pottsville Area. He graduated from PAHS also. Mr. Johnson decided to become a teacher when he had trouble with reading.
