2000 - 2009
I remember the morning of 9/11. My third floor journalism classroom was one of the only rooms with a TV because it had been the library. Mr. Knobloch rushed in and asked me to turn on the TV because a plane had flown into a building in New York. We turned it on just in time to see the second plane! Needless to say, there was no curriculum taught that day. My room was filled with people staring in horror and disbelief at a box. Our lesson that day came from the gut.
I taught from 1993-2003. First, at the elementary and then at the high school. My classes made the annual in 2001, 2002, and 2003!! Good memories. Both of my sons went all through school at AC. Ellen Cox taught my youngest. That's why I love her so much.
