This month’s ACME Teacher of the Month is Henry H. Wells Middle School math teacher, Diane Starr.
Starr is retiring at the end of this school year and will be sorely missed. Principal John Clark had so many great things to say about her. “She’s an incredible teacher and a consummate professional,” he said. “She’s always the last to leave, is a meticulous planner, and is great with students of all ages.”
Starr is also known for her peaceful demeanor. “She has the most even disposition,” Clark said. “She never raises her voice. She’s always even and calm.”
Past winners include Rebecca Archer (BHS), Francine Monti (JFK), Jess Juska (BHS), Irene Othmer (WMS), Jackie Fego (CVS), Chris Kayler (JFK), AnnMarie McLeod (BHS), Tom Nelligan (WMS), Janet Murphy (CVS) and Lisa Goeddell (JFK).
