More vacation news from our WTPS staff!
Lindsay Miller - Anthony Wayne Middle School - 7th Grade Social Studies Teacher I was chosen to attend a two week National Endowment for Humanities at San Diego State University about Using Comics to Teach Social Justice with 25 other accepted teachers.This included a panel at San Diego Comic Con. I had a fantastic time learning from experts about teaching with comics and creating comics.  As a project, I developed a lesson plan about environmental justice, including creating a comic about Wayne's former Superfund site.

Carmela Minichiello - Wayne Valley High School - Foreign Language Teacher I went to Ireland this summer with my husband. Ireland is great for sightseeing and for walk lovers. I enjoyed the beautiful landscape and the music. Unexpectedly we found some great Italian restaurants too!
Donna Reichman - Central Office - Assistant Superintendent I had a wonderful trip this summer visiting Naxos, Mykonos, Santorini, and Crete in the Greek islands with my husband and daughters. The Greek salad that I ate there was amazing!

Vanessa McCue - Pines Lake Elementary School - 3rd Grade Teacher Over the summer I went to Sicily, Italy with my husband and my mom visiting my family. I spent time with my cousins I don’t get to see often, visited the beautiful beaches, and ate lots of delicious food!
Maria Maritato - Anthony Wayne Middle School - Para I went to Myrtle Beach, SC, down the shore, as well as some time at our other home in Pennsylvania. I traveled with my husband and my children as well as with my parents, sisters, nieces and nephews and other friends, coworkers and family members. It was my first time visiting Myrtle Beach and was a lot of fun experiencing a new place.

Jessica Fishman - Wayne Hills High School - ELA Teacher My husband and I went to Paris and Nice, France in early July and enjoyed a river cruise down the Rhône River. I loved seeing France for the first time and plan to return. The food was AMAZING! Later in the summer, we joined my parents, our daughter, son-in-law, grandchild, son, and his girlfriend on Long Beach Island where we introduced Baby Charlie to the sand and sea at North Beach Haven. I’m really enjoying spending the summer with my new granddaughter.
