Mr. Bohn has been teaching in the district for 27 years. In that time, he has taught middle school social studies, health and technology classes; adult education; alternative education; college classes and community education classes.

Mr. Bohn likes to spend his spare time wood working, cooking, and reading--his favorite book is the Harry Potter series. His favorite quote is, “If a problem can be solved, there is no need to worry. If a problem cannot be solved, worrying will do no good.” Mr. Bohn’s all-time favorite place visited is the Soviet Union.

Mr. Bohn loves teaching, saying he is proudest when students do what is right and when no one is looking or asking them to. He believes in his students’ potential and strives to provide engaging instruction. He is consistent and decisive and stays up-to-date with technology, current events and social studies teaching methods.
