1. MRS. LORRAINE FLORIO, Sci- ence Department: At this stage of the game . . . 2. MRS. LORI FULLER, Math Department Chairman: But that doesn ' t help us any does it? 3. SR. LENORE GORMAN, Para- professional: That ' s what the instructions say. 4. MR. MICHAEL GRIFFIN, Reli- gion Department: Be quiet during the prayer! Mrs. Lorraine Florio, who teaches biology, is a unique individual. She majored in nursing at the Hartford Hos- pital School of Nursing; and, as a Registered Nurse, she taught the Nursing Arts. It was then that she was first exposed to students and the teaching profession in gen- eral. Although she had already received a B.S. in Nurs- ing and Service, she returned to Central Connecticut State College to continue her education. She received her Master ' s of Education in the biological sciences and became a teacher. Mrs. Florio has been teaching at Northwest for eight years now; and although she is married with three chil- dren, she still finds time to be active at our school. She has been appointed as moderator of the National Honor Society and she wishes to involve the members in serv- ice and leadership, explaining, I strongly feel that the members of the Society should be leaders - not just scholastically, though. They should be applying their knowledge which qualified them to join the group in the first place. Mrs. Florio is very happy with our school and the envi- ronment that surrounds us during our sometimes long schooldays. She says that she has missed only about 10% of the basketball games in the past eight years. She has had many positive experiences here and she enjoys the strong community which exists at Northwest. Everyone works closely together and in unison, she commented, But the real value of our community is our diversity. 38 Faculty
