The results of my efforts will be for others to measure, but for my part I will say I am trying. Next year will by my 30th year of teaching hs science and coaching cross country/track. And yes, a lot of what we all care about here does find its way into my classroom as I teach wildlife management/role of hunting to biology students and set up an "archery shop" in the back of my classroom to repair arrows when our PE students are doing their school archery program.

My focus? I care less about the scores that students get on a test and more on the person they become.
