My students are, as I tell anyone who will listen, a great bunch. They are kind, funny, diligent, intelligent, and ambitious. Above all, they love to learn and know that education is the key to their future success. Most of my students will be the first in their families to attend college, and some will be the first to graduate from high school. With your help, they will be prepared to become the future doctors, nurses, forensic investigators, geologists, and scientifically literate citizens of the next generation.
