I began teaching junior high school Physical Science in 1974...reached my "max potential" in 2 years :) and moved on to teach high school chemistry, biology, physics, ecology, consumer science over the years since.
My first five years were in a large public school system and the rest in a small private boarding school to which my wife and I felt called to devote our careers.
Here we have enjoyed living and working on campus, getting to do a huge variety of interesting jobs, raising 2 children who have supplied us with 5 wonderful grandchildren.
At present I not only teach Physics, but I also get to help other teachers with technology in their classrooms and maintain the facilities of our camp and conference center.
