I served as the sole high school math teacher in this small school dedicated to helping students with learning differences. I taught all courses from Pre-Algebra to Pre-Calculus and experienced great growth as a starting teacher. While it was not ultimately the role that I wanted to devote my career to, I was proud to have begun my career in such a fine institution. (The school is now known as The Crosland School.)
