Individual Crossroads Reflections

Probably the largest contribution was introducing me to the idea of environmental protection through the school recycling program (before it was widespread). This spark has lead to persistent inquiry and a 30-year career toward protecting air quality. Thanks to Arthur and Carol for creating such a welcoming space for young minds to grow and learn.

Truly, I don’t think there was a single teacher that didn’t have some direct effect on who I am today (I did not cover my persistent love of books and reading thanks to Carmel, or my enjoyment of physical activities thanks to Ray, or lifelong friendships with classmates either). As I keep thinking about it, more pours into my head. It was such an influential place.
