Houghton Academy

Science (1995)

If you had asked me when I graduated from Houghton College if I’d return to Houghton and teach, I would have laughed at you. If you had told me in 1994 that I was going to return to Houghton and teach at Houghton Academy I would have told you that God has better plans for me. Well, I’ve been teaching science at Houghton Academy since 1995. I can tell that this is God’s plan for me!

Teaching middle school science fits my personality. I love waking up and walking into the class to visit, teach, play and talk with my students.

Annually I also take the 7th and 8th graders on a three day trip. In the spring of 2007 the trip is to the state capital in Albany and then to Boston for among other great activities, a whale watch. In 2008 the plan is to visit Gettysburg and in 2009 we’ll be going to Niagara Falls. These trips are always very fun and educational.
