Tell us why you became a teacher

My grandfather didn’t get to go to school beyond 8th grade due to poverty. It instilled a sense of the deep privilege that is a quality education.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

I’ve taught in a variety of settings but teaching 6th grade history in a boys’ only setting was pretty intense and fun.

What would you do with the $25,000?

The typical teacher answer: -Pay off my husband’s student loans (also a teacher) -Save for my 3 children’s college fund
