From Mr. Rouzer…

I’m really enjoying this school year and the wonderful, positive environment that Shady Oak Primary School provides. I love to see the satisfaction and self confidence that comes from mastering a subject step by step. My goal is to see each student experience this. The growth in self-confidence and ability is my focus as it impacts so many aspects of life. In my personal time, I like to study economics and investing, reading, and gardening. Since my first retirement I’ve also been spending much more time in the kitchen after so much traveling.
