Hello!  My name is Richard Faulkner.  I am the middle school language arts teacher at Pearce Elementary School.  I have been here at Pearce Elementary for 12 years and I have been a teacher for 13 1/2 years.  I received a Bachelors in Elementary Education from Northern Arizona University.

I am married to my lovely wife, Eugenia.  I have one son and two daughters.  I also have five grandchildren.  Two of my grandchildren are currently attending Pearce Elementary School with me!  My favorite things in the world are fat cows, fast horses and puppies.  I also love to read and write short stories.

I look forward to having your child in my language arts class.  A great deal of fun and education happen in my classroom.  I am always looking at new ways to integrate technology into my classroom as well as learning new ways to teach language arts to my students.  Have a fantastic year!
