In a economically challenged community, devastated by wildfires for the last three years in a row, it is difficult to inspire hope and create dreams in the children that live and go to school in Lake County, California. John Tyler, previously a sixth grade math and science teacher at Burns Valley Elementary in Clearlake, is attempting to do just that by taking on a new challenge - that of Automotive Technologies Instructor at Lower Lake High School. Mr. Tyler, is now providing a high-quality education in the automotive industry and valuable skills training in mechanical repair, auto-body repair and painting and auto electrical systems to 115 eighth through twelfth grade students, many of whom he taught in sixth grade over the last five years. The real-world skills and knowledge that these students acquire will be invaluable to them and to the larger community as it tries to rebuild both economically and socially.
