If there is one thing that is clear after speaking with Jason Mayo it’s that he loves Norfolk County.
Born and raised on a farm here in Norfolk, Jason quickly returned back home to teach once he graduated.
Jason believes there is just something special about the area, and the people, that keeps him planted here and moulding young minds for the future.
For his teaching style, he models it after a childhood hero who first had him thinking about becoming a teacher – Mary Poppins.
While laughing at how silly the reference sounds on the surface, Jason says her values of making learning fun but also being stern and straight with kids under her watch when she needs to be is a very serious goal of his and something he believes he accomplishes in the classroom.
