Margie Vance Gregoriades
Teacher 1970-1991
Pinewood has a place in my heart which will never be extinguished. I have many fond memories and lifelong friends from my years teaching there (1970-1991). Learning with my wonderful students led to unforgettable times; the couple of days we dedicated to learning about bats after finding one in our classroom, animated conversations, poetry, field trips, plays, art shows and science fairs. . . students who came to me speaking no English and left competing with classmates. Biljana Obradovic is an example and now is a published poet and a university professor. I could surely continue, but have run out of space!
