About the Author

John H. Atwood, an educator with a BS in Elementary Education, an Administrative Certificate and a Master's Degree has been writing for years. Focusing primarily on academic initiatives, his emphasis has been on the critical analysis of school systems. After 30 years of teaching, administration and designing conflict mediation programs, John retired...oops, wrong word! Let's just say his next "chapter" was devoted to presenting education workshops at local universities. During a more recent chapter, this wealth of experience led him to develop a series of children's books with his daughter. As a former teacher, administrator and special assistant to the superintendent, John still hears that call to action. With an ever-changing curriculum and new technologies to impart information, he continues to pursue innovative ways to connect with children...next chapter TBD!
