DEREK JACKSON, CAMP DIRECTOR
Hello Terrapin Family! My name is Derek Jackson and I'm so excited meet all of you! I've worked with children all my life and I plan to continue for years to come. I like to consider myself a superhero without the cape, and if I could be a superhero, it would be Black Panther! I've taught 2nd grade for five years and I coach basketball, flag football, mentor, tutor, and DJ on the side! I love to dance, play basketball and truly enjoy spending time with my two beautiful daughters and family. I'm always looking to have FUN as everyone should and can't wait to have FUN with you! While I love to coach and play sports I'm always down for new adventures. See you all this summer at Terrapin STEM & Sports Summer Camp!
