You learn something every day if you pay attention. – Ray LeBlond
I've spent over three decades in education.
It's been a wonderful career for me.
I've taught in very, very small rural schools, medium-sized rural and urban districts, large urban districts, and at the University level.
I've taught in wealthy schools and poor schools; gifted students and those who struggle. Public schools and currently in an independent, college preparatory school.
I've worked with kindergarteners and high school seniors, preservice and inservice teachers.
