The Finalists' websites are posted in their own photo album on our Facebook page, so check those out first, visit the sites, click around, then come back and vote via our poll. Thanks for your participation - we were amazed by all the entries and fantastic websites that we got to review, and if you didn't end up in the Top 5, know that it's because there are so many stellar educators out there using our products to reach their students and families that it was almost impossible for us to choose. Thanks again, The folks at TeacherWeb : : : : Photo: About The Teacher Label: About The Teacher Knowledge is Power "Only those who have the patience to do simple things perfectly will acquire the skill to do difficult things easily." - Johann von Schiller Mission I want all my students to discover the principles of science that influence the world around them and use them to benefit themselves and others through their life and career choices. I want my students to realize that science has applications in all walks of life no matter what their individual interests or their career goals might be. Everyone should be knowledgeable enough to enjoy and use scientific concepts and skills in a responsible way. Mission Label: Mission I received my bachelors degree from UCLA in 1971 and my masters degree in 1976. My background is in biochemistry research. I left high school instruction in 1991 to work on a grant program at Tulane University for three years, working on lung cancer research. In 1994 I returned to St. Tammany Parish Schools and joined Salmen High School Faculty in 1995, teaching Chemistry and Physics. In 1998 I began coordinating the Allied Health Academy as part of our School-to-Work program and teaching Allied Health I (aka Health Sciences I) which explores the ten health care clusters and the skills needed in the health care industry. The next year Allied Health II(aka Health Sciences II Medical Terminology) was added. In 2001, I became the Intern Coordinator and the School-to-Work Coordinator for Salmen High School, directing our career programs and managing Salmen's internship courses. The Internship Program finds jobs for seniors that align with their career paths as defined by their Individual Growth Plans; students get the opportunity to learn, first-hand, about the career, meet people working in that field, and form a network of support to get the right education and skills to become successful. Learning and Life experiences are brought together for the benefit of the students and for the businesses in our community. With the inception of our Dual-Enrolled program (the student is enrolled in high school course and a corresponding college course, earning college credit), I became the laison between Salmen High School and the colleges that offer dual-enrolled courses. Dual-enrollment is open to juniors and seniors who are at least 16 years old and meet requirements as outlined by the State of Louisiana and the participating college.
