Mr. T. Werner

Hello and welcome to the spring semester of the 2023-24 school year here at JLHS.  My name is Ted Werner.  I graduated from Richard Stockton College with my degree in Applied Physics, and a minor in Mathematics in 1999.  Immediately out of school, I taught math for 4 years, but wanted more.  I wanted to share my love and passion of science, and try to light the same fire in my students.  

I began teaching in Jackson in 2003, and have taught almost every science course we offer over the past eighteen years.  I am still just as passionate about what I do as I was the day I started.  I have been fortunate to have students in my class who either shared my passion for the subject, or became passionate while there.  Many of my former students have gone on to study at very prestigious technical and engineering schools, and several who have followed my footsteps to becoming fellow science educators.  

If you are passionate about something, find a way to do it.  It may not be the most lucrative, but I love what I do.  Which is really more important?
