Mr. Wiggins
“As freshman kids come into high school, I guess there’s a lot of nervousness. Helping them realize that they can do this, I just try to help relieve some of their anxiety and stress. I always have the idea of [being] the teacher you’d want to have. Put yourself in [your students’] shoes… Be the teacher you’d want to have sitting in front of you. I try to live up to that expectation,” explained LHS Geography teacher Mr. Matthew Wiggins.
