My name is Ryan Baldwin and I am very excited to be teaching sixth grade math at Garcia Middle School this school year.  With powerful leaders and students at GMS, the future is in good hands.  The youth are our future, and teachers are here to empower the children to do big things.

     I'm originally from Tonawanda, NY, and met my wonderful wife while in living in Buffalo, NY.  We have been married for over 15 years and have two awesome boys, ages twelve and fourteen.  The younger one will be here at GMS while the eldest is entering high school (they grow up so fast!).

     I graduated from Geneseo State University in 2007 with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications.  I then received a Master of Science in Childhood Education, from Canisius College in 2009.  I am certified to teach in Texas from Early Childhood-6th grade and I am GT trained.

     I've worked with students of all age groups, from all backgrounds, and with various abilities.  I am super excited to be starting this journey at GMS with all of our Gators!  Let's have an excellent year!
