Two students excel in rigorous interview process for acceptance as Philadelphia Teaching Fellows

February 23rd, 2009

Seniors Amanda Bonanni and Lacey Ward were selected from among more than 1,300 applicants to teach in the Philadelphia School District while attending classes to earn their teaching certification.

Bonanni will teach mathematics at the middle or high school level, and Ward will teach English, probably Special Education English, at the high school level in the 2009-2010 academic year.

Both students cite their experiences at Messiah’s Philadelphia campus as a life-transforming time as they fell in love with the city of Philadelphia and developed a passion for the city’s children.

    Thank you Amanda and Lacey. As a teacher in the Philadelphia School District and as a mother of a Messiah first year students, I say welcome and thank you. It was because of the influence of a graduate of Messiah College, Christopher Frank, who teaches at a Philadelphia public school, who steered my son to Messiah. He loves it there.
    It is not only the christian schools and the suburban schools who need God fearing, bible believing teachers. All of our students need that steady presence and strength that Messiah College graduates bring with them.
    Again I say Thank You Amanda and Lacey.
