New English teachers share personal poems
Joining the English department are former college professor Lael Ewy, veteran teacher Kynda Faythe and a new transition to teaching first year teacher Sarah Huslig. All three are teaching general English courses spanning freshmen through juniors.
Each wrote their own personal poem to share as an introduction to their self.
Kynda Faythe
A Bohemian-esqu wanderer with a passion for storytelling and words
A fourth-generation educator who fell into teaching upon happenstance
A pez-tastic, kindred spaz who is continually searching for her next adventure
Armed with trivial knowledge, a wealth of world travels, a plethora of life experiences, and a source of never-ending curiosity, Ms. Faythe take the road less traveled
The journey has made all the difference
Lael Ewy
The problem, dear reader,
is that all poems are about the self–
or rather, about distance
from the self, they are maps
delineating speaker from reader,
subject from self. I object
to constraint within
those lines, yet am happy
after all to hold my voice
within them.
Sarah Huslig
Always up for new adventures
Fearlessly delving into uncharted territory
With a love of English and literature
Unconditionally willing to lend a helping hand
Happy to find a new home at Newton High
