Mr. David Hodgson
Greetings! Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year! It's going to be an unusual year, but I am as committed as ever to students' learning.
I teach Spanish, OT Literacy and 7th Grade Foundations at the Upper Campus of Global Arts Plus. This year marks my 13th year at the school. I previously taught at Homecroft Elementary and before that I worked in New York City teaching middle school in Manhattan and Brooklyn.
In addition to being a staff member, I am also a proud GAP parent. This year I will have a student in 3rd grade and another in 6th. (My daughter also attended the school from Kindergarten through 8th grade.)
During my free time I enjoy reading, travel, long hikes and photography.
I look forward to working with your kids! Please feel free to email me if you have any questions or concerns as the year progresses.
