About Tom |
I am recently retired from teaching in public schools for 32 years, the last 30 years as the media specialist at Clermont Elementary School. I have taught and worked with pre-kindergarten through fifth grade students covering a wide spectrum of abilities.
One of my greatest joys was sharing stories that expressed the love and magic of Christmas with the children and listening as they shared their tales and beliefs about Christmas and Santa Claus with me. Besides finding joy in reading stories with children, I love singing and currently sing low bass in my church choir and the Millennium Master Chorale in Leesburg, FL.
