Kayte Sherman Russell ’72 writes: "I have been a GrandmaBear for almost 8 years. Kathleen and Troy have been married for 10 years. I have been a teacher for 34 years. I presently teach 7th & 8th grades at St. Pius X School, Chula Vista, CA. I am passionate about learning and teaching about the Holocaust, tolerance, American history, English, language, and morality. I have been to Israel; I was part of the first USC Shoah Foundation Institute Leichtag Family Foundation Workshop for teachers. I will be attending the Finding History, Finding Ourselves Holocaust Seminar in June. I have had a pen pal in Pennsylvania for 28 years. I will be visiting her in July. I am a member of Delta Kappa Gamma Society International. I can now speak Spanish fairly well. I keep in touch with a few close SCU friends and through them, with others. I taught Mike Beresky’s daughter; I have the son of one of my former 5th grade students, Jose Vizcaino Jr., going to SCU this year! I have been teaching a LONG time!"
