Welcome!  My name is Mr. Brown and this is my fifth year as a fifth grade teacher at Northside, and my sixth in Mechanicsburg.  Northside is a special place to me because, once upon a time, I was a Northside student!  I graduated from West Chester University with a degree in Elementary Education and am certified to teach grades K-6 as well as Middle Level Social Studies (grades 7-9).

When I am not teaching I enjoy kayaking, reading, music, and playing sports.  I am a huge football and soccer fan which means I spend my Saturdays and Sundays supporting two teams- the Green Bay Packers and Liverpool Football Club.

Communication between parents and teachers is extremely important so please feel free to email me throughout the school year with any questions or concerns. This website will be a great resource for both student and parent use; it will be updated frequently so check in with my home page to find out the latest 5B and English Language Arts news.
