A big shout out to North Canton Primary School Physical Education Teacher Derick Schwedt! 🧡🖤

📣 "Mr. Schwedt brings so much positive energy to the Primary building. Students (and staff) always wonder what Mr. Schwedt will do next- dressing up in costumes, leading dance parties, riding around the building on a scooter, etc. He is not all fun and games though because he has a big heart for students, especially those with special needs. He works with and cares for all students wonderfully. It is so great to have such a positive male influence for the youngest learners in the district."

Give your own shout out to Mr. Schwedt in the comments or show a little love with a click ❤️!
