Tell us why you became a teacher

Agriculture class is what made me stay in school and graduate. I had a wonderful Ag teacher that helped me relate things I understood in agriculture to math and science. I want to provide that to students.

Tell us about your most memorable teaching experience

There are too many to pick just one but, a student who is now a doctor, says that I gave him a reason to live by showing him how he could be successful. He was about to commit suicide and he says I changed that for him. I am very proud of all of my students and who they have grown to be.

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would purchase equipment we use to produce fees for the many animals we have on our school farm.
