Mary Jane and I worked together at Hewitt. She was a dedicated, brilliant, and committed educator. Her focus was always on the student as a learner - whatever a student needed in order to become confident and successful, Mary Jane made it happen. If that meant a student needed private in-school math classes, then that was what was provided. Teachers were supported and given a myriad of opportunities to hone their craft through workshops and classes. The push-in leaning specialist program she established at Hewitt was invaluable - unfortunately for both teachers and students it was discontinued when she left. In addition to her excellence as an educational leader, Mary Jane was a kind and generous person. It was an honor to teach under her leadership. She was a mentor and friend and will be greatly missed.
