JUNE 2017
Since the beginning of my teaching career, I have made a bet with Earth Science students. The bet is that if a student receives a grade higher than a 95 on the NYS Earth Science Regents Exam, I would dye my hair or wear a wig. The first student thus far to achieve this was Trentin Plew on the June 2017 exam. Once school started this year, Trentin wanted me to dye my hair bright pink. Thankfully, Mrs. Dimorier told me it wouldn't work on my dark hair. Informing Trentin of this terrible news, he happily decided on a clown wig. I wore this wig for the entire day on November 17th, 2017.
Congratulations Trentin!
JUNE 2018
Continuing the tradition at McGraw High School. Neka Long received a grade higher than a 95 on the June 2018 Earth Science Regents exam. Opposed to having me dye my hair or wear a wig, Neka chose a Sully costume from the Monster's Inc. movie. Upholding the bet, I wore this suit all day on Halloween 2018.
Congratulations Neka!
JUNE 2019
I was lucky enough to have two students receive higher than a 95 on the June 2019 Earth Science Regents exam. The students were Tehya Long and Abigail Morse. They both decided on different costumes.
Tehya Long chose Winnie the Pooh!
I wore this amazing Winnie the Pooh costume in January 2020.
The next student is Abigail Morse. She decided that I should be a superhero.
Abby chose Batman!
I wore this costume in September 2020 due to the unfortunate timing of SARS-CoV-2. Nevertheless, it is always enjoyable to lose these bets every year to my Earth Science students!
Congratulations Neka!
