David Waide
10th Grade Advisor
A Jamaica native, David graduated from Teachers College there in 2000. After teaching for a couple of years, he attended the University of West Indies, where he received a BSc. in 2006 in math and computer science. He taught high school math again in Jamaica before the BCPSS came calling. David’s first assignment once in town: Walbrook High School. Three semesters later David conceded that its doors were closing for good. Such gentle grace under fire would soon become a treasured quality among his colleagues and students at Independence.
