What’s your favorite part about Valentine’s
Day?
I think it helps people remember somebody else.
Are you doing anything special for Valentine’s
Day this year?
I don’t have any plans for that weekend yet, but
it’s nice to know we have the next week off.
Are you reading any cool books right now?
Right now, I’m reading three different books: Once Upon a River
by Diane Setterfi eld, The Girl on Legare Street by Karen White,
and Cutting for Stone by Abraham Verghese. And I’m already
hunting down my next “reads.”
Do you like being a female teacher at an all-boys school?
Yes, I absolutely love it, because I have raised boys and girls and
I think that I get to pass on what I have learned to these young
men.
