Hello! I will begin my 27th year of teaching science at NTHS in the
Fall of 2011. I absolutely love what I do and I hope that is apparent to the
students and parents who pass my way. I was born and raised in North
Tonawanda and graduated from NTHS in 1978. I love NT and I truly believe
that our high school is one of the finest around. We have great teachers
and great facilities but it's the NT kids who make our school the absolute
best!
In my spare time I hang out with best friend (my wife, Candy) along
with a few of my teacher buddies from NTHS. I also dabble in song-writing
and I'm active in promoting Kan-Jam, a frisbee game that I co-invented in
1996 with my wacky pal, Charlie Sciandra. I'm probably biased, but I believe
Kan-Jam is the greatest game in the world!
To work hard and have fun, to be be constructive and productive, and to
work together on mutual goals as we explore the most amazing planet in the
solar system, our beloved home, Earth. Please read the 2011 - 2012 syllabus
for Regents Earth Science "The Physical Setting" distributed in class on
opening day for details pertaining to the journey that lies ahead.
