Blast From The Past January 4, 2007

Got an interesting, albeit late, holiday card from my 8th grade Leadership teacher, Mrs. Oldfield, yesterday. I remember her fondly because she was one of the first people to teach me about organizing and management of people (during that first foray into politics, where I was elected on the strength of the “Laura Genao the Cow” slogan, discussed earlier), Robert’s Rules of Order (although I’m often accused of creating complete chaos), and how good teachers can influence you forever (thereby ensuring that I went into teaching).
Her family letter says she was honored as Teacher of the Year by her school district, that she’s in her 28th year of teaching, and that she still teaches 8th graders. I’m glad that she’s continued to be as great a teacher as I knew she was over 25 years ago.
