I teach 6th and 7th grade science at a public school in the Bronx. My students are creative, energetic, curious about the world, and love "hands-on" activities. They strive to do their best for themselves, their school and their families. The dedicated staff at my school are trying their best to nurture young men of integrity that will one day become leaders that make a positive impact in their local and global communities.
