John Dobson
My name is John Dobson and I am the new 6th grade Social Studies teacher at Commerce Middle School. I spent much of my life in construction and electrical work until I severely broke my leg. I then decided to go back to school to become a teacher. I graduated from Texas A&M Commerce with a Bachelor Degree in Social Studies. I am also certified in Special Education. I have been with CISD for 9 years. I served in DAEP for 6 years and have worked in SpEd/Inclusion for the last three. I am a single father of a beautiful young lady named Kendall Rose Dobson and she is the light of my world. I have a tremendous passion for working with middle school kids because middle school was a tough time for me. This is a time in their lives in which so many changes are taking place and self esteem is usually under attack. I strive to help kids find themselves and be successful in the world and in education. I know that I cannot change the world, but if I can make a difference in some students and help them to find value in themselves then that is success to me. I am looking forward to the upcoming year and the great things that are going to happen.
