School Spirit Days - Spirit Rallies!

Lunches in the big grassy quad...

The Tiger Newspaper Crew, the Yearbook Crew!
Band with Mr Jameson... (and his more intense/passionate moments!)

Smiles, laughs... getting sent to the principals office... (only once) with Steve Saeta and Rich LaBrie for screwing around in Mr. U's class??

Dr Groves and Chemistry!

Class Committee meetings and Class Officer meetings... lots of fun... not sure what we accomplished though... (probably because I was always talking!)

All great experiences... except some challenging days in Honor's English, and Physics... with Mr. F! :)



Great memories all of them!

Okay, cutting weight (eatting salads!!) in Wrestling during my "growth spurt years" was NOT FUN! (I would have been 6' 1" I know it!!!)

Okay... here is the deal!... since you asked/are reading...

Graduated from West Point in 1985 (went to West Point's Prep School right after HS).

24 years in the Military as an Infantry Officer
with a focus on Leadership, Leader Development and Counseling

Found my passion in Leadership, and Character Education

Spent many years better understanding Youth, Education, and Character Development

Have produced much material on Educating Youth and Developing Character Education Programs for HS and College level populations, and Educators... (willing to share it all, of course!)

... have done Ethics Conferences, National Presentations at HS and College level in Leadership, Ethics and Character... with a focus on both Students and Educators!

Believe it or not, I was able to incoorporate much of this into my experience at the National Military Academy in Afghanistan with 265 Afghan Faculty, and 1187 cadets!

So... if you are interested, ask... and I will send you all I have! (Free of course!)

Not sure what I will do after the Army, but it will most certainly involve all that I have shared above! (We will see....

FAMILY... nothing better!
The Great Outdoors...
Traveling around the World... via the Army!
Being stationed at West Point! What an Assignment (3 times)

Boating out on the Hudson River with Family!
