Krogh, Jake (English)

I'm assuming that if you're on this page, you're a student (or parent) who is looking up your teachers for the coming year.  If that's the case, I'm so excited to meet you!  

A bit about me:

This is my fourth year teaching at Broad Run.  I guess I've ended up joining the "family business", as both my parents and many of my siblings are educators at the high school and college level.  My wife is in the family business as well; she is entering her third year teaching 3rd graders at Steuart Weller Elementary School.  Last year, my AP Lang students were pen palls with her students.  We made a field trip so our students could meet their pen palls in person, which ended up being a highlight of the year. 

This year, I'm teaching 10 Honors (a favorite of mine: I've taught it all four years I've been at BR) and AP Language and Composition.  This is my second year teaching AP Lang, and I'm looking forward to seeing both returners from my 10th grade classes as well as new faces.  I've been prepping my AP Lang curriculum all summer, and I'm so excited to share the material with my students.  It should be a pretty special class.

In addition to teaching, I am entering my fourth year coaching basketball at Broad Run, and my second as the head coach of the Boys Varsity Basketball team. 

If you're looking for specifics on what this school year will look like, make sure to stop by the Back to School night.  You can find me in room 203!  I'm sure students, as well as parents/guardians, will have many questions as we launch this school year.  Please feel free to reach out via email (jacob.krogh@lcps.org) with any questions you have related to the start of the school year.

I look forward to meeting you all soon!
