Principal Brian Cox Joins WY Milken Educators

 

Principal Brian Cox catches his breath after the excitement of his surprise Milken Educator Award announcement. The principal always puts students first and guides students who need extra support toward academic success. When he talks with students, he asks them how they picture their lives in 20 years—home, job, family—and then works backward to help them connect those dreams to studying hard and getting good grades. Principal Cox often reminds teachers that students are not little adults, and that teaching the whole child means understanding not just what is happening, but why.
