It’s MeMichael MacDonald

Hi,

I would like to introduce myself. My

name is Michael MacDonald. I came of

age in a small town in rural (very rural)

Nova Scotia, Bridgetown, “The Friendly

Town.” My three sisters and two

brothers all live in Nova Scotia and are

successful in various ways.

Upon graduating from university I

travelled to South Korea to find fame

and fortune. I was fortunate enough to

find my passion, a great partner and

enough money to pay off some student

loans.

My wife and moved to Middle Sackville

in 2007. Our son, Noah, was born in

Korea and our daughter, Hannah, was

born here last November.

The reason I’m here…

My Dad

I did not become a teacher because of a life

long dream to educate or for any other noble

reason. I became a teacher because of a

suggestion made by my father.

My father was a Teacher, Principal and at that

point in his life a Superintendent of schools.

He told me that I should complete an

education degree because even if I didn't want

to be a teacher a degree in education would

open up many other doors. His other

suggestion was that I stay out of the staff room

for the first couple of years.

I’m thankful for the times I took his advice.
