Former Saint Martin Teacher Revives Shop Class!

The inspiration for both Skidmark and Motogo came from Brian Schaffran’s five years as a teacher at St. Martin de Porres High School. “We had this thing called Wonder Week where we stopped teaching our regular classes and got to teach whatever our hobby was,” he says. “I brought in three motorcycles. And for one week, I had 12 kids just working on motorcycles and getting to know how to use tools. It was life-changing for me and them.”

Cleveland Magazine profiles one of Saint Martin's all time favorite teachers and his Motogo Program which Mr. Schaffran now enjoys with current Lions as well as other high school students around our area. It is a great read by Ilona Westfall.
