In this photo, I really wasn't thinking about becoming
a teacher. That didn't occur until high school. School has been part of my life for almost all of it. It took me 14 years
to get out of high school because I flunked the third grade. I spent four years at Cal Poly, SLO, for a B.S. (Their school
colors are green and gold, as on this page.) I almost used purple and white for Pacific H.S.
I did my cadet (student teaching) at Strathmore, CA. For those
of you who don't know where that is, it's between Porterville and Lindsey. I was the 20th faculty member, and the principal/superintendent
gave me one key--for the whole school. He just said, "Have a reason to be there!" They even had a new TV in the cafeteria,
but I found myself too busy to ever use it.
