About Me

Hi, I'm Mr. Spicer and this is my 12th year teaching math.  I am happily married to Jennifer Spicer and we have two children, Stella and Dean.  I went to the University of Georgia and I have a master's degree from West Georgia.  I do some woodworking and love finding the next project I can do to improve our home!  

I really enjoy teaching math and applying it to real world situations.  After taking my class, I hope that you not only know the math that we study, but I hope you also learn how to apply it and be a problem solver!  

Degrees and Certifications:
Certified for Math 6-12 
Bachelor's degree in Mathematics Education from The University of Georgia
Master's Degree - Media Specialist/Instructional Technology from The University of West Georgia
