Leathwood, who holds a Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Gonzaga University, began his career in teaching in 1979 as a physical education, mathematics, and science instructor in Kaslo, British Columbia. He worked a variety of positions throughout the course of his twenty-seven year tenure, including classroom teacher, counselor, department head, and vice-principal, and in 2006, transferred to Mt.

"My background as a coach and counselor has enabled me to build and maintain very solid and respectful relationships with students, parents, and other professionals."
Growing up in a family that believed in the power of public education and shaping the future of the country with good academics, Leathwood knows that educators and future educators have an incredible impact of the lives of students.
