(Melissa Smith) MI

I left H.S. with a music scholarship but changed gears in the 1990's. I am in my 12th year of teaching visual art at Orchard Center High School where I specialize in at-risk youth, for whom I implemented a Character Education program. I have a great husband, 5 kids, 4 grands, and am quite easily amused.
