My name is Brady Arnold-Diaz, my students call me Mr. Brady, and this is my 6th year teaching upper grade special education at Elk Run. I love my job and helping students reach their academic goals through targeted instruction and collaboration with their classroom teacher. A little about me, I lived in the Dominican Republic for four years as a Peace Corps Volunteer, I speak Spanish, I have two dogs, and I am currently pursuing my doctorate degree at the University of Utah (one year left, hopefully). I am happy to be at Elk Run with an awesome administrative team, great teachers, and a positive and encouraging school culture.
