Mr. Jones

Welcome to the 2023-2024 School Year!

Dear Students and Families,

My name is Mr. Jones, and I love my job as a computer science teacher here at Wakefield High School. I am so excited for the new school year and to meet my new and returning students. I hope you have had a wonderful, restful summer and are looking forward to the new school year as much as I am.

I teach a variety of computer science classes. In my classes, we explore the fascinating world of computer science, using Python and Java programming languages. My goal for my students is that they develop a deeper appreciation for, and critical perspective towards, the role that technology plays in our lives.

One of my favorite things about computer science is that it has a place in every career and discipline. Through open-ended projects, I encourage my students to be creative and to find ways to apply computer science to their own interests and lives.

I started my teaching career here at Wakefield last year. My previous career was in the software industry, and I am excited to share my industry experience with my students. I learned a lot last year, and I know that I will continue to grow into my new role this year. My goal is to be an excellent teacher, and I firmly believe that a strong partnership between school and home is essential for our students' success. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions, suggestions, or concerns throughout the year.

Sincerely,

Chris Jones
Computer Science Teacher
