The mantis shrimp sees more colors than we do! So glad we got to take our JSA kids. HUGE shoutout to Sofia Sandoval for planning everything.

When you and your friend both know what day it is. Dean K #OnWednesdaysWeWearPink #MortonPride #OrgulloMorton

One good thing to come out of this situation is discovering the amazing Dear Jack Foundation Dear Jack Foundation, which supports young adults battling cancer. They sent me swag (including a pillow for my chemo port)! And I'm getting a big pampering self-care weekend soon. Can't wait 😊

I saw my oncologist today. He said that my scans came back clean and I am cured of cancer! I still need to be checked regularly and monitored, but it's still a huge relief. Thank you so much to everyone for all of your support, especially my amazing Morton Family. #MortonPride

HUGE shoutout to the Dear Jack Foundation for granting my wish this weekend. You provided my fiancee and I with an outstanding weekend of relaxation. Spa day, hotel, and a delicious steak dinner. You all are the best! Venue shoutouts are next!

Way to go team! Dean K love the headband!

I'm a bit late but thank you so much Morton East NHS for having me at your induction banquet. I'm beyond honored to be named an inspiring teacher by my amazing students this year of all years. Special shoutout to my student Oscar for his heartfelt speech about me. #MortonPride

On Wednesdays we wear pink: summer edition. Hope everyone is having a great day! Dean K Krissy Anthonsen orange_crush Megan Holub Ms. Jessica Gonzalez

Love taking my girls to the dog park, especially in the summer. Shout out to Krissy Anthonsen for bringing her boys!

Was at the bank yesterday when the bank teller said "Wait are you a teacher at Morton East? I didnt have you but I heard you were awesome." She graduated in 2019. I will always love this part of my job and I'm still in awe of the influence we teachers have. Day made. #MortonPride

It's the first Wednesday of the year. Where are my fellow pink wearers?

Love it! Let's get more staff next week! #MortonPride

Another successful Wednesday of wearing pink! I'm loving this tradition. Math department has been showing up STRONG so far. Ms. Jessica Gonzalez Mr. Lunz #MortonPride

Had a great night of parent teacher conferences. One of my favorite parts? Student volunteers using their breaks to help me decorate my classroom to be more festive. We truly have the kindest kids. #MortonPride

Special guests in the Dean’s Office —Happy Halloween from Mr. Gamboa and one of our favorite students! 😉 #mortonpride

Huge milestone yesterday as I got my chemo port removed. Still vigilant and still a lot to process but I'm so grateful to be here. Thank you to everyone for your support. Special shoutout to my amazing wife for taking care of me AND getting me post surgery donuts.

Perk of teaching: students will show their appreciation in ways you couldn't imagine in a million years. Super thankful to my student who made this for me in the engineering lab. Day definitely made! 😄💙 #MortonPride #OrgulloMorton #IAmThePescador

A gift to myself for teacher appreciation week. I need ALL of the colors.
