 Mr. Jason M. Williams 5th Grade Teacher Technology Lead Meet Mr. Williams: I have been teaching for 12 years. This will be my third year with STREAM after spending the previous 8 years at Roosevelt Elementary School, in Redwood City, CA teaching 5th Grade.
I grew up in San Carlos, CA, which is located in the San Francisco Bay
Area halfway between San Francisco and San Jose. I attended Junipero Serra High
School in San Mateo then went on to the University of San Diego where I majored
in Diversified Liberal Arts with a Concentration in History. I earned my
teaching credential from Notre Dame de Namur in Belmont, CA I wasn't always sure that teaching was going
to be my profession. School was not always easy for me, but with
determination, the desire to learn and good role models I challenged myself to
become a good student and realized I had something to offer, the "fun of
learning". With my interest in technology I have created a
technology rich classroom affording my students the opportunity to get a
sampling of what the future holds for them in their education and beyond. My
mission is to provide an effective classroom learning environment while making
the process of learning engaging, challenging and most of all fun. I strive to challenge my students to their
full potential. In doing so my students
have won the Biz World Challenge in 2012 and 2013. In 2014 I
was honored to receive the J. Russell Kent Award from the San
Mateo County School Boards Association for my Pencil Box News program. This award is given to innovative and
outstanding classroom programs. When I am not spending time teaching or
prepping for class I enjoy all types of sports. I am a loyal fan of the San
Francisco Giants, 49ers and Sharks and bits of my enthusiasm for these teams
are visible in my classroom. I enjoy golf and I am constantly striving to
keep my drives straight and on the fairway. I enjoy all forms of
technology having built computers and components from scratch. There
isn't a technology issue I shy away from. Bring it on! I have two brothers, two nieces, and a dog
named Charlie and my iPod is full of country music. I made the decision to move to the
Chico-Oroville area as my family moved here seven years ago. Being a family
person I decided to pursue a teaching position in the area and this lead me to
accepting a position with STREAM. I am excited to be a part of this team that
has worked so diligently over that past few years to bring this new and
innovative school to this community for your students. Still being new to the area I have a lot to learn
and look forward to contributing to our community. Together we will make a difference in
educating our students and watch them develop into productive adults. I am looking forward to this year; getting to
know the students; my colleagues; the parents; the community and most of all
teaching and sharing a positive, productive, and fun classroom. You will have the opportunity to keep up with
what is happening in our classroom through my class website which can be
located at www.schooldaystoday.com.
The website is currently being updated but please take a moment to
browse the site to get an understanding of what you can expect. As the school year progresses I hope you will
find the site to be helpful and informative.
