Dennis Young and Kurt Paul, Former Humanities Teachers, Jamaica High School

These two incredible teachers co-taught a classroom throughout High School. They worked together to prepare their students for college in an informative, interesting and fun atmosphere. They were ahead of their time and the students in their classroom received an enriched education. During senior year, students attended a barbeque at Mr. Young's house. I am not sure in today's world if they could have challenged their students to learn, think and become well rounded students. I still have wonderful memories of their class. My peers went on to have successful experiences in college and in the world of work.
