People of PS: James Menephee
Tune in to hear Head of School, Dr. Mark Carleton, chat with James Menephee, Middle School Ethics teacher, about his path into education and his role in teaching ethics at Presbyterian School. This episode is now live and available for download on our People of PS Podcast.
James received his Bachelor of Science in Communications from the University of Phoenix and a Certificate of Biblical Leadership from the Vineyard Institute. After serving 10 years in the military followed by jobs in the corporate America, James decided to pursue a career in teaching and went back to get his alternative teaching certificate. He came to Presbyterian School from A+ Up Charter School where he was a Middle School Social Studies teacher. At PS, James teaches ethics to 6th-8th graders and also leads the Middle School Student Senate. James enjoys volunteering as a teaching pastor at the Brazos Church in Richmond as well as working with the Multicultural Center “Hunger Truck” to support the homeless in downtown. A lifelong learner, James is a seventh degree black belt in martial arts and in his free time enjoys reading, music, and learning how to do new things like acrylic painting.
