Ms. Gallahue's profile

What year did you become a member of the PS 230 community?

I began working at PS 230 in 2007.

 

What do you like to do in NYC for fun?

I enjoy traveling, going to the theatre, and spending time with family and friends.

 

Who most influenced you as a teacher?

In high school, I met an extraordinary teacher.  My English teacher, Mr. Rebaldi taught me as much about life as he did about literature.  He shared his emotions, values, and love of nature and literature with me.  He was there to support and help me when life was harsh.  He was a brilliant man and a wonderful educator.

 

What is your favorite book?

I love "Thank You Mr. Falker," by Patricia Polacco because it reminds me of the powerful influence a teacher can have in the lives of their students.

 

What is your favorite part of the school day?

My favorite part of the school day is reading aloud to my students.  I love sharing my favorite books with them.
