Melora Lee Cann
Mel is currently teaching third grade at Vicenza Elementary School in Italy. She holds a M. A. in Elementary Education from the State University of New York at Oneonta and a Master of Public Administration from Troy State University. She followed the paths of both her parents, choosing a career in education. "I love to give - and what greater gift is there than an education?" Mel was instrumental in establishing the Graduate Institute for Federal Teachers (GIFT), an on-going graduate studies university for which she is an adjunct professor of art education. A grateful parent writes, "Melora Cann is a credit to teachers everywhere. She is one of those teachers whose work and life resonates for a lifetime. My Thomas will never forget her or the Cann-room difference."
