Join Lisa as she reconnects with two of her former cooperating teachers, Jackie Sonderfan Schoon—now in her 34th year of teaching elementary music at Meadow Brook Elementary in Forest Hills Public Schools—and Dr. James Borst, whose remarkable career spans forty years in education. Together, they discuss the role and impact of mentoring student teachers. The trio also reflects on the life, influence, and legacy of Dale Topp, sharing memories, lessons, and the profound impact he had on their teaching and their students.
