While I do not have the space to list all the teachers, below are some of the most creative, most caring and most dedicated teachers I have ever known: Warren Zuger, Angie Head, Jessica North, Kathy Mehr, Kathy Burns, Jim Eccleston, Brian McGovern, Kenny Hardcastle, Anne Peterson, Heidi Campbell, Clint Alexander, Jason Sullivan, Brian Dodier and Emily Finerfrock.

The purpose of everything I write is to make a better world for them.
