Math Teacher Brian Quinn Wins MD Milken Award

 

 

Surrounded by cameras, microphones and notebooks, Brian Quinn talks with reporters after his surprise Milken Educator Award notification. Quinn is constantly looking for ways to innovate and engage all students, including those with special needs, who are fully integrated into his classroom. He leads weekly math intervention groups and creates a vibrant, stimulating learning environment in which students are willing to take risks. Seventy percent of his students reached proficiency on math assessment tests; the district has used Quinn’s small-group strategies as an example for its other elementary educators.
