February 2005: Bruce Blakemore

"My name is Bruce Blakemore, I teach algebra and algebra readiness at Ollivier Middle School, here in the Greenfield Union School District.
What I like about teaching most is that it is exciting every single day, there is no boring moment.
One thing that I really really admire about my students, in all of them, is there pursuit of excellence. All of them try to be the best students they possibly can. They seem to have a love for learning.
I'd rather do my own work and receive an "F", then cheat and get and "A", I say that quite often.
Continue on your path of excellence, don't quit, don't give up, sometimes there'll be some detours, but don't lose sight of the goal."
