Dare to Make a Difference​


      Believing that education can transform lives, Reggie White, the Alabama Teacher of the Year and a National Board-Certified Teacher demonstrates this daily as a fifth grade educator at Booker T. Washington K-8 School, located on the southwestern side of Birmingham, AL. A graduate of Southern Choctaw High School, Mr. White’s innate ability to teach was nurtured at Alabama State University where he received a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. Inspired to further his education, Reggie completed a Master’s Degree in Education and attained an Educational Specialist Degree in Educational leadership. Mr. White works hard to promote critical thinking, technology literacy, and social skills applications to everyday life. Reggie subscribes to the tried-and-true adage that students don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care. As a result, he uses his words to uplift, engage, and inspire each of his students. His main goal in teaching is to empower youth to be highly skilled individuals who will thrive in life.
