Welcome to Mr. D's Classroom!
Name: Mr. John Driscoll
2022-2023 Courses: AP Language and Composition, World Literature, Exploratory Literature, Theology IV, Middle School Literature
Family: I have been married to my wonderful wife, Sarah, for 14 years. We have an extremely dynamic family. God has blessed us with five amazing children.
Hobbies: In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, playing basketball, reading, hiking, riding bikes with my children, watching movies (or Netflix/Disney+), camping and listening to/playing music (to name a few).
Religious Background: I was baptized into Christ in December of 1982 at Redeemer Lutheran Church (LCMS). I was confirmed in my faith in May of 1997 at Redeemer Lutheran Church. I believe that "all Scripture is breathed out by God" (2 Timothy 3:16). I adhere to the Unaltered Augsburg Confession and subscribe to all the Lutheran Confessions in the Book of Concord of 1580 because they are a correct exposition of the prophetic and apostolic Scriptures of the Old and New Testament. Also, I believe that it is "by grace [I] have been saved through faith. And this is not [my] own doing; it is the gift of God" (Ephesians 2:8).
Educational Background: I graduated from Deer Lakes High School in 2001. I attended Pitt-Johnstown, CCAC, and then graduated from Slippery Rock University in 2007 with a Bachelor's of Science in Education. I received my Lutheran Teacher Degree by completing the Colloquy Program of the Lutheran Church-Missouri Synod. I have completed the School Leadership Development (SLED) program for Lutheran School administrators.
Goal: As a teacher at Redeemer Lutheran School, it is my goal to work with administration, school staff, parents, and mainly through the power of the Holy Spirit to help plant seeds in the hearts and minds of your child/children through discipline, respect, guidance, encouragement, sound educational strategies and daily modeling of Christian love. If you ever feel the need, I encourage to you to contact me by means of email or phone.
In Christ,
Mr. John Driscoll
