Mr. Channell is the band director here at Lincoln.
Mr. Channell has taught for 25 years total, but has taught at Lincoln for the past 10 years.
He started teaching because he felt that was what he was meant to do. He knew he always wanted to be a percussion instructor.
Mr. Channell's favorite memory of band is "every time we march at Disney World and I see the expressions on the kids' faces when they see the castle as we march. Kids cry and I get to make fun of them.”
As a student, his favorite class in school was band because that’s where all the “hot” girls were. Speaking of hot girls, Mr. Channell made sure to mention his assistant band director, and also his wife, Mrs. Channell. He has been married to Mrs. Channell since 1993 and they have two kids - Carissa and Mac.
Outside of school when he is not with the band, he works on his farm cutting brush, taking care of his chickens, and riding his Polaris.
