I taught school in Springfield, Ohio for thirty-one years before retiring on March 1, 2012. In 1984, I began taking notes about the funny and special moments that happened during my teaching career. This book contains quotes and responses to questions my students have made. It also contains stories that I’ve written about my career, my students and my family. Some stories have a funny side. Some are serious in nature. Together they tell the colorful story of my days in the classroom. Gene Yontz
