Meet Mr. Stansell
My name is Charles T. Stansell. God blessed me by placing me here in 2005. I am originally from San Diego, Texas (GO VAQUEROS!). Although I have taught primarily in the 5th grade here, I have also taught K3 thru 5th grade. I have also taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade for the San Diego Independent School District in San Diego, Texas in Special Education (Language Arts). I also worked for the Jim Wells County Sheriff's Department in corrections. One unique thing about me, is that I had the opportunity to work in the 2004 film, The Alamo. Since then, I have enjoyed participating in annual Texas Living History events such as The Battle of Bejar/Siege of the Alamo, and The Battle/Massacre at Goliad. My mission here at Saints Cyril and Methodius Catholic School is to prepare my 5th graders for the 6th grade.
