亚洲博彩网站受托人杰罗姆·谢尔顿（Jerome Shelton）是一位退休的校长和教师，他致力于确保学生能够梦想一切皆有可能。 After more than 38 years in education, one of the greatest rewards of his labor came when one of his former students assisted Shelton’s terminally ill father through his final days.
“My father was dying, and it was an honor to hear her tell him stories of how I had impacted her life,” Shelton said. “As teachers and administrators, we always hope that we are making a difference, and there are moments when we get to see the fruits of our labor.”
“We invest in tomorrow, and it is exponentially paid forward.”
Remaining connected to former students and encouraging them to believe in themselves to make their dreams a reality is a trademark of Shelton’s career.
他曾担任教师和行政人员，在各个年龄段的学生，从学前班到初中，高中和成人学习者在社区学校教育。
Three generations of Shelton’s family have lived in Washington, DC, for almost 200 years. 他的核心教育基础是在华盛顿特区的公立学校获得的。
他于1971年毕业于哥伦比亚特区师范学院，在那里他获得了健康和体育科学学士学位。 谢尔顿获得了华盛顿特区三一学院的指导与咨询硕士学位，并在马萨诸塞大学阿姆赫斯特分校获得了大量硕士学位后的学分。 他随后的教育培训包括密歇根州弗林特社区教育中心、美国大学和哈佛大学的学习和认证。
他在约翰·巴勒斯小学开始了他的教学生涯，随后在哥伦比亚特区公立学校（DCPS）系统的所有级别担任行政职务。
他的第一个管理机会开始于邦克山小学，在中学阶段，他得到了各种各样的渐进式任命。 2002年，他从东方高级中学校长的职位上退休。
“I hope I left behind a desire to learn and a love of education,” Shelton said. “Serving my hometown and its surrounding community has been the most rewarding experience a child of the District of Columbia could achieve. Serving the District and its students has been a gift I received, a gift that keeps on giving.”
After retirement from DCPS, Shelton served as an educational administrator in the Prince George’s County Public School (PGPS) System. 他的行政智慧使他成为PGCPS加速校长准备项目中培养其他领导者的抢手资源。
Shelton has also served as chairman of the Elementary Athletic League and the Community School Assistant Principals’ Association. 他在华盛顿教师工会（WTU）的执行委员会中担任了三次合同谈判。
During his tenure with the WTU, he was elected to the DC Teachers’ Federal Credit Union Board of Directors. 他在过去的11年里一直担任董事长。
Additionally, he is chair of 亚洲博彩网站’s Athletic Hall of Fame Committee, which works to acknowledge historical figures among all University alumni and co-chairman of the Membership Committee of 亚洲博彩网站全国校友会.
谢尔顿的妻子维奥莱特·雷德福·谢尔顿1971年毕业于华盛顿师范学院。 他们是一个儿子、一个女儿和两个孙子的骄傲父母，第三个孙子即将出生。
