Bellefontaine City Schools is proud to announce its Thursday Tribe Member of the Week.

Jordan Reser is this week’s recipient.

Title: Bellefontaine Middle School Stem Educator

Years of experience: 10 years teaching (9 years with BMS)

Why you love being a Chieftain: I love our school and community. After going away for about 10 years for college and professional experience, I was looking for the hometown feel that only your hometown can provide. I love seeing how Bellefontaine has grown and changed and especially how students that I've been lucky enough to teach have been a part of that success.

Classroom motto or quote to live by: “To learn you have to listen, to improve you have to try.” – Thomas Jefferson

What you love doing outside of school: I love spending time with my family. I also enjoy playing pickleball, tennis, and a variety of board and video games with friends. Finally, you’ll find me rooting on the Chiefs and Buckeyes.
