Chad CarmackChad Carmack is a former school principal who recognized the opportunity to change lives by mentoring, identifying untapped potential, and taking action to help individuals grow. A pivotal moment in Chad's teaching career changed his professional pat. Before becoming a principal, he was a technology education teacher passionate about mentoring and teaching the most challenging students. Many of his students struggled in other courses but excelled in his class, as they loved hands-on activities and technology topics. Chad found a way to spark their interests. When he displayed a group photo of student leaders and their work, a colleague approached him and said, "They are a bunch of criminals." Chad knew he would have to step into a leadership position to change this type of thinking. He became a principal to cultivate highly effective teachers and facilitate school-wide student academic achievement initiatives while championing the power of mentorships. Chad served thirty years in public education as a principal, assistant principal, human resources specialist, and technology education teacher. After serving four years in the United States Air Force, he studied at Millersville University in Pennsylvania where he received his bachelor of science in education. While working as an educator, he completed his master of business administration at Wilmington University in Wilmington, Delaware, and his doctor of education in educational leadership at the University of Delaware in Newark, Delaware.
