My name is Charles Schultz. I have a child who started school in 2010 with Unit 4, but I have been interacting with and engaged in the school district since about 2005. I see community engagement as a huge factor to the public school system’s success, and it is my desire to “grease the wheels” to make that happen.
During the summer of 2011, Chuck Jackson and I invited to public to join us at Houlihan’s every Wednesday for “open forums”. Our agendas are quite open and flexible, the purpose being to create a safe environment for folks to come and share their opinions about Unit 4.
My “day job” is as a database administrator with the University; I have been working with databases since 1998, mostly Oracle, and I know a trick or two. I also teach a couple of intro-level database classes at Parkland (with a colleague from work) when there are enough interested students. That has been a lot of fun for me.
Outside of work, I have been teaching myself other technologies like php, html5, css3, wordpress.org and javascript (hard finding the time to do that, though). For fun, I wrestle with my daughter, read books, play video games, and play competitive volleyball with the Park District.
