Tell us why you became a teacher

I was fortunate to have amazing grammar school and high school teachers who inspired me to learn and pursue interests in science and history.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

After 38 years of teaching I cannot simply pick one experience.

What would you do with the $25,000?

Obviously, pay down some credit cards. I would put the rest to my daughter’s education. She is studying Music Education at Ithaca College. May the circle be unbroken. . .
