Meet Me in A Minute: Mr. Farrahadoon Durrani

Meet Me in A Minute: Mr. Farrahadoon Durrani

During the day you can find Mr.  Farrahadoon Durrani upstairs in the Chemistry Wing, but after school you can catch him leading the Cross Country or Track boys to victory.

Durrani started off teaching in 2010, and eventually started coaching in 2012. “I wanted to give back to my community. I honestly had no desire to coach at first because I just wanted to focus on my training.”

While teaching the sciences Durrani loves interacting with kids. “Each student brings something to the classroom and at any given moment there can be a spark that gets the classroom going.”

Besides teaching in a classroom, Durrani coaches boys Cross Country and Track.

“My high school coach was like a father figure to me. I looked up to him and appreciated everything he did to help me become a good person. I want to help mold students into better people like my coach did for me. Once I decided to retire from competitive running I decided to use my knowledge to help others improve their health. I coach cross country and track.”

Whether he is in a classroom, or on the field Durrani wants to help mold his students and athletes into better people. The best part of being someone of authority is inspiring his students or athletes to make positive changes in their life and making them healthier.
