I attended Harmony Elementary in the 70’s and Mr. Covington was my science teacher. He had the best laugh while trying to teach wild kids the scientific method. Sometimes I had to write “I will not chew gum in class” a hundred times - sometimes I had to run laps around the playing field. But mostly I remember being respected and learning to be respectful. Mr. Covington taught me to be the best at whatever I was doing and to be joyful while doing it. Close to 30 years later - my mom and I visited Mary Jo and Karon and we had lunch at their home. I wanted to thank him for all the wonderful things he taught me. He will be missed by so many! Thank you Mr. Covington.
And yes the scientific method!
Awe, thanks for sharing. It makes us super happy that he had such a positive impact on you!
