moted to department coordinator/teacher and while employed, completed a Master of Science degree with Honors in Organizational Dynamics at the Uni- versity of Pennsylvania. Then, while still working as department coordinator/teacher, she completed her Doctorate in Education at Nova Southeastern University, with a focus on Leadership, Curriculum, and Educational Technology. Katherine also com- pleted the required coursework and field experienc- es to earn her certifications as Supervisor, Princi- pal, Business Administrator, and Superintendent. For 13 years she taught a wide variety of business courses. She also advised the student organization Future Business Leaders of America for 11 years. Katherine then was hired as a district supervisor of
Music, Technology, Family and Consumer Sciences, and Business. This position was at a small K-12 district that has four schools. To apply her new skills, Katherine was then hired at a very large K-12 school district in central New Jersey. She served as the dis- trict supervisor of Secondary Mathematics, Business, Informational Technology, and Computer Science. In this capacity, she supervised more than 100 teachers at six different schools, aligned more than 50 courses of study with New Jersey State Standards, and personally provided a variety of professional develop-
ment workshops. She also served as Project Director for two large grants, one for middle school Math- ematics and one for Business education. She also supervised student organizations Future Business Leaders of America, DECA, an organization of Mar- keting Students, and the Math Team. She was also responsible for teacher training to improve test results for New Jersey State testing by grade, the SAT, the ACT, Advanced Placement tests, and Microsoft Office Certification testing. Katherine worked together with leaders at the Department of Education, teachers of Mathematics and Business, as well as other district supervisors to make improvements.
While serving in this school district, Katherine was afflicted with a chronic health condition, which forced her into retirement. A few years later, John joined her in retirement. John has been continuing many activities such as boating, fishing and playing the guitar. She has been focusing on improving her health to date. She is also as active as pos- sible as a member of Temple Judea in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida. Katherine and John will continue to share a passion for equality of opportunity for men and women, a solid education, excellence in business practices, and serving to make a positive difference in people’s lives.
