Hello! My name is James Young, and this is my 5th year at Dakota Ridge High School. I love being an Eagle. This is my 22nd year teaching, and I'm excited to continue building the Dakota Ridge Theatre program.
When not teaching, I work as a professional actor at Adams Mystery Playhouse, and I also love spending time with my family. I enjoy reading, writing, running, Superman, Star Wars, Star Trek, The Beatles, and driving my convertible with the top down when the weather is nice!
Let's have a great year!
