One of the joys of being a teacher is having a former student find their passion in life, in part because of a course you taught them in. You never know what affect or impact you may have on a student and it’s a delight to find out how former students are applying the knowledge and skills they gained during their time with me. I am so pleased and proud of how Eric Palmerduca has taken what he learned as my student in the science program at The Fulton School, to become such an outstanding student at a very prestigious university.” Mrs. Cheryl Farrens, Upper School Science Department
