That's Mr. Brough to you!

It's an exciting week here in South Jersey! David is a teacher at the Y.A.L.E school in Northfield. It presents new challenges everyday. The students all have behavioral and emotional problems that's why they are there. He has 9 students total but he hasn't had all of them come yet. He has two great teacher assistants. We won't be posting names or stories because that's confidential but believe me when I say this is an adventure! We love you, David! You get an A+ from us!
*This was taken when he left for his first morning of training and meetings. He can wear polo shirts but long pants and nice shoes are required. Ties are a hazard in this job so he won't be wearing them!

David has also begun a graduate program. It is a Master of Education: emphasis in Special Education. (That may not be the official title but close enough.) He is very excited about this step.


And if you thought he wasn't busy enough he has also joined a Rugby club. He played rugby at BYU on a club team before we dated. He just started practicing twice a week with matches beginning next Saturday. This will be a good stress reliever for him. Here's his schedule for anyone who'd like to support him. The Away games are all in Pennsylvania! Yeah, not very many people play rugby here.
