40th

This week was the 40th anniversary of my first day as a teacher. I was a mid-term replacement and one of the school's first special education teachers. Since that day, I have taught in rural and urban settings both elementary and secondary, and in schools in Japan, Ontario, and Arizona. I'm proud to find myself now a professor of Teacher Education at EMU. Not too shabby for the first kid in his family to go to university.

You never know where this degree in teaching will take you.
