met and married my husband David Bates (a Cambridge native) in 82. Have 3 children: Sarah (24) studying at Russell Sage College in PT - graduates in May with her doctorate, Noah (20) studying history at Adirondack Community Colleg...Expand for more
e - wants to transfer his Associates to SUNY Binghamton, Zachary (nearly 17) is a junior at Cambridge Central School.
Own our own home on East Main St. since marrying - have done extensive renovations over the years.
Have started a 5 yr plan towards retiring - hopefully in 2015 after 35 yrs at BOCES. Sounds boring working for the same place so long, but anything but with all the positions I have held and the diverse and ever changing children with complex needs that I have worked with.
Would love to hear from anyone from my class. Have lost touch with my BFF Elena Canas - does anyone know where she might be?
