About Larry Bell
Larry Bell‘s passion is teaching. He taught for 15 years at Gar-Field High School in Woodbridge, Virginia, which is about 30 miles south of Washington, DC. Gar-Field High School had over 3000 students at the time. Larry taught many of the most challenging students. He made it his personal goal to reach all of his students.
After many years of classroom experience, Larry went on to share his exuberance for teaching with other educators in the district as he became a supervisor in the central office for Prince William County schools in Virginia. There, he developed and institutionalized several innovative programs to help underachieving low-income students. Using a half-million dollar grant awarded to him by the federal government, Larry created a Behavioral Specialist program for the most challenging students in the district. As a result of these successes, Larry was compelled to bring his ideas and strategies to other teachers, schools, and districts nationwide.
For the last 20+ years Larry has been working with teachers and administrators nationally and internationally. He has helped educators significantly increase the achievement levels of students. He has also helped teachers improve discipline and classroom management. Larry provides ongoing guidance to numerous “Larry Bell schools and districts” nationwide. These schools and districts have institutionalized his strategies and methods with impressive results. Larry rekindles the joy of teaching in teachers and administrators. He helps educators remember why they became educators in the first place and inspires them to be their very best.
