And They're Off!

When classes resume in the fall, several NMH faculty members may have interesting answers to the age-old question: How did you spend your summer vacation? Three dozen teachers are taking advantage of funds set aside for professional development and are traveling to locales from Vermont to Turkey for in-depth study or training. Spanish teacher Sue Borland is heading to Barcelona for classes in Castillian. English teacher Bob Cooley flies to Dublin to study modern Irish literature. Charles Raffetto, technical theater director, goes to an art educator’s forum in Savannah, Georgia.

"We are proud of our faculty and invest deeply in the continuing learning and growth of teachers," says Hugh Silbaugh, dean of faculty. "NMH teachers model lifelong learning for our students."
