Old Town Academy

Mr. Turner Watts 

Welcome to my page. This is my 9th year at OTA and 11th as a middle school English teacher. The community of students, teachers, and parents at OTA is second to none and I’m looking forward to another great year! 

I come from a family of educators and the idea of being a teacher was always in the back of my mind.  After a five year adventure in the US Navy submarine force, I got my degree in English education and the rest is history.

When I’m not teaching, I love to spend time with my wife Claudia and our two year old son Kit. My other hobbies include reading, camping, and cooking. As a proud Marylander, I love the Orioles and Ravens.
