After 13 grueling interviews in New York State for a new job as a school psychologist, I finally found a job in LaFayette, NY. This is a small little district where 30% of the student population is Native American. While I was hired as a school psychologist for grades7-12, I was also the district CSE Chairperson for all three schools. While it was a tremendous experience, I was afforded the opportunity to work in Oswego again for the 1999-2000 school year. I made many friends from the district and we still regularly keep in touch.

| The surprise party Karen Markoff threw for me. We used to celebrate each others birthdays through hat drawings. While mine was the latest, I knew that Karen had my name. However, instead of in the school, she was good enough to host the party at her home. From left front row: Mrs. Karen Markoff, Mrs. Sharlene Doolittle, Mrs. Nancy Southwick, Mrs. Sue Beggs, Mrs. Paula Thompson. Back: myself, Ms. Kim Allen. | This is Ms. Gernhardt (English) with Mrs. Moore's (mathematics) son. This was taken at an end of the year party hosted by Mrs. Terrilion. |
