To Whom It May Concern:

I am happy to recommend Shawn Flynn for the Athletic Director/Administrator position. I have
known Shawn since 2006 when I worked directly with him as a Special Education teacher and
assistant coach for the basketball team at Campbell High School. Mr. Flynn taught Algebra class and
I was the special education teacher assigned, and he has made great contributions in assisting the
students to function successfully in school. He was effective in this work because he liked and
respected the students, but at the same time held them to consistent standards of behavior. He always
worked closely with the students families and understood their significance in his work with their
children. His work as a Math teacher and department head has a direct link to his success as a coach,
winning state championships and to running Campbell High Schools Math department.
Shawn has coached Varsity girls basketball for 15 years, during those years he has set up a program
that worked closely with parents and student athletes to stride to be the best basketball player but also
the best student athlete. The work Shawn and I have done over the years with math students and
student athletes has prepared me to be an administrator in the Manchester School District and I feel
the same can be said for Shawn Flynns preparedness to be the next Athletic Director. Shawn is
reliable and hardworking and has a great sense of humor. He understands the challenges of school
administration and is prepared to make his contribution to the successful operation of a school and
athletic department.
I encourage you to bring Shawn Flynn in to join your administrative team. Please feel free to contact
me if you have further questions.

Yours truly,

Shawn Baskerville
