Teacher, 84, starts 59th year teaching
HASKELL, OK — 59 years at one job is inspiring, but 59 years teaching math and science to middle school students is impressive.
That’s the case for Sylvester Franklin, whose career started shortly after World War II came to an end. The only place he has ever taught is in Haskell, in Muskogee County.
And check this out: If nearly six decades on the job isn’t impressive, Mr. Franklin has only missed two days of classes in that entire time.
That is such a great story! thanks for posting!
