  • Hello parents, students, and all spectators to my ARC bio page. My name is Mr. Pennywell. I am a 9th and 10th grade ELA teacher.

     

    I enjoy teaching at ARC primarily due to the countless relationships I develop with bright students and innovative colleagues. My philosophy as a teacher centers around making sure all students are granted the opportunity to learn and evolve into outstanding students, learners, and most importantly, contributing citizens of society.

     

    I personally enjoy reading, writing, watching classic films, and thinking of innovative ways to communicate ideas and thoughts.

     

    Feel free to glance at my syllabuses, my Week at a Glance (general lesson plans per week), and my Canvas Courses linked to my classroom. 

     

    My classroom number is 524.

     

    My tutoring hours are 3:20 pm-4:20pm (Monday-Thursday). 

     

    If you have any questions or concerns, feel free to contact me via my cellphone number and school email.

     

    Have a blessed day and let's continue to work together to provide an awesome educational experience for our kids.

Mr. Calvin Pennywell

My name is Mr. Pennywell. I am an ELA teacher here at the Academy of Richmond County. 

I graduated from Augusta University with a Bachelors Degree in Creative Writing. I'm currently undergoing a Graduate Degree in Secondary Education at Georgia College & State University. My hobbies are running, reading, writing, watching classic films, and spending time with my family, but most importantly, thinking of innovative ways to communicate thoughts and ideas.

My teaching philosophy is as follows: 

It is because of the effective teaching of my past teachers that I enjoy reading and writing. It is because of their consistency, determination, and caring nature that I appreciate the importance of education. They have challenged me to strengthen my skills as a student and individual in order to better equip me for the world and its varied expectations. My purpose as a teacher is to be a conduit of that legacy. My goal as an educator is to mirror, if not evolve, their same effective practices. My goal is to help students become better readers, writers, listeners, and communicators as they maneuver through a world of varied requirements and expectations. The world has many questions and is awaiting their responses, for their purpose may be the solution to someone's problem.
