Mr. Kesler has honestly been one of my favorite teachers throughout my six years thus far at NA. Despite the challenging nature of Physics Honors, he makes every class engaging. He is always available for extra help, and he often proposes new ideas to the conversation that I hadn't even considered. I am so lucky to have such an amazing teacher!

Your dedication to expanding the curriculum and introducing cutting-edge topics like R and machine learning in your Stats class is truly inspiring. By doing so, you are not only helping them to develop a deep understanding of these important subjects but also preparing them for potential research opportunities.
