Besides the traditional classroom I have taught in the prison system, residential mental health facilities and in theaters across the country. Currently I work in alternative education at John F. Kennedy Middle School in Suffolk, Virginia. I teach English and science for grades 4-8. I also am a Drama Club sponsor at JFKMS and a drama minister at Fools for Christ http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4p7te/foolsforchrist I offer a number of free scripts at that site.
