Melissa McConville, Math Teacher "Upon graduation from Saint Vincent College, I was awarded the President’s Award.

There were times they would disagree about a call, but they were such lovely and honest women that they would not even argue about it; they would politely reach a conclusion and we would hang on their conclusion, because we cared about them so much.”
