I am a retired public school urban educator who has taught biological sciences 20 years. My passion has been designing curriculum and assessments aligned to state standards for high stakes exams (MCAS). I have taught a wide variety of different students including honors, college prep, inclusion and ESL students.
After retirement, I taught middle school and high school science in a small Christian school.
The differences in the needs of public and private schools provides me with a view most educators have not had.
