Mr. Best grew up here in Peoria and is an alum of the Class of 2014! He is thrilled to be back at PND. He has seen his faith grow here from the many opportunities to receive the sacraments and participate in campus ministry events, as well as hearing the stories of other teachers about why they desire to be at PND. Mr. Best decided to become a teacher because he enjoys helping others come to know that they can learn and achieve something new, including learning what we all are capable of doing! Outside of school, Mr. Best enjoys reading, being outside, and playing sports. He can even dunk a basketball — on a good day.
