I have taught in a well known high school district in suburban Chicago for nearly 33 years. It is time to finally "graduate." I'd like to share the experiences and stories of these last months. All names, other than mine, will be changed to protect the innocent and guilty.

Mr. Miller
One of my freshman boys interrupted my class today to tell me, "Mr. Miller, this is the only class we are still learning things in."
My quick response was, "That is because I care about you!"
Southwest Suburban Chicago, Illinois, United States
When I was in grade school, I had some really different, and really interesting teachers, but I never wanted to be one. When I was in high school, I thought that teaching would be the worst possible occupation. Then, after working in business for a while, I ended up in grad school preparing to become a high school business teacher. 32 1/2 years later, here I am!
