Not always. Two promi- nent teachers who received national recognition for their service to their school were Dr. Ted Tsumura and Mr. Gary Alexander. Dr. Tsumura received the Presi- dential Award for Excellence in Sci- ence Teaching. There were many characteristics he needed to receive this award. He was not only a science teacher, but was involved in science related activities in the school, com- munity, state, and nation. Called Dr. T by many of his stu- dents, he dedicated himself to science for twenty five years. He made one thing clear. Although lim very hon- 2 3 0 Faculty ored by this award, the best reward is in the classroom when students are really involved in the subject at hand. Sr. Stacy Redmond, one of many students of Dr. T, respected him. She explained, 'sHe really knows what he's teaching, and he gets the material across clearly and easilyf, This was one of the many reasons why Dr. T was liked so much. The other nationally recognized teacher was Mr. Gary Alexander. His award was given by the National High School Gymnastics Coaches Association for All American Coach of the Year. Although Mr. Alexander was very privileged to receive such an award, the quality of his gymnastics team contributed to his receiving the award. I received the award because my team was the number one ranked team in the nation. It's a direct result of my team, rather than me, he said. Mr. Alexander was more honored to receive the Service Contribution Award from the United States Gym- nastics Federation. This award was given for his twenty three years of service to the sport of gymnastics. Coach Alexander said, I was recog- nized by the governing body of the entire United States Gymnastics Fed- eration. These two teachers showed that Overland had not only gifted stu- dents, but gifted teachers as well.
