Tom Haeck

• Masters in Education from Central Washington University, 
• Bachelors of Science in Health and Physical Education from Central Washington University.

Mr. Haeck grew up in Kirkland, in fact he is a former Bell student and went all the way through AG Bell, Kirkland Jr. High and Lake Washington School.  He remembers they were allowed to play in the woods at recess, here.  His countless childhood memories of Bell include that he had Mrs. Daly.  Of course she was his favorite, she is everybody’s favorite (and she’s still here).

He has taught at Bell since 2005 – the best parts are all the daily hugs, high fives, and “Hi Mr. Haeck”.  Plus he gets to do PE all day everyday saying, “that is all I wanted to do at school when I was a kid and now that is what I get to do!”

In his spare time he enjoys anything sports oriented especially Snowboarding, Wakeboarding, Mt. Biking, Flowboarding (look it up), Baseball, Soccer, Golf, Racquet sports, Adventure Races.  His Boston Terrier, Luci, loves to snuggle on the couch.  Ken Griffey Jr. was his childhood hero and still is his favorite athlete.
