Teacher Of The Week: Mr. Kenneth Padgett

NORTH BABYLON, NY — Everybody has a favorite teacher — maybe it's a teacher who went out of their way to make one student's day or a teacher who brightens up a classroom, whether virtually or in-person, every day.

One teacher who deserves a shout-out is Mr. Kenneth Padgett, a college math teacher at North Babylon High School teacher. He was nominated as this week's Teacher of the Week by Liam Joseph.

Here's what Joseph had to say about Mr. Padgett:

He has helped me understand math so much better. I’m doing better in math now than before. Upon being a great teacher, he’s also a great person. He has a fun personality, and is always willing to help whenever I need it!

Congratulations to Mr. Padgett!
