Mr. Derek Bias (5th, 6th, 7th and 8th)

A little about Mr. Bias...
 
I was born and raised in Los Angeles. Married for almost 8 years to my beautiful wife Abeni and father to my gorgeous daughter Nailah.

I graduated from the University of California - Davis with a degree in Rhetoric & Communications.I have spent 6 years of Bible study at my church and I'm the president of the United Methodist Men's organization there as well.
 
I love to travel and have traveled to France, Italy, Switzerland, Germany, Egypt, England, Mexico, Jamaica, Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and numerous states across the US. In the previous year I drove across the country.
 
I love sports, especially the Lakers, Dodgers, Kings and Raiders. I love music especially smooth jazz, Latin jazz, gospel and 90's hip hop. 
 
Middle school students have always been my favorite!
