Cornelia Marie Sails Into DC Classroom!This is a featured page



On Friday, May 2, Captain Phil Harris, Jake Harris, and Josh Harris of the F/V Cornelia Marie visited our classroom as a surprise for my students!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I wish to extend my deepest appreciation to Captain Phil, Jake, and Josh. Your kind spirits and generosity towards my students will have a positive impact on them for a lifetime. Your visit was truly wonderful and we hope that the memory of the event will come to your minds from time to time. If you ever need some greenhorns, you know where we'll be! :)



Thank you to Russ Herriott for helping make the visit possible. Thank you to Kicker and CM for your wonderful classroom gift (ipod "Rockin'" Station) and thank you to Joe's Clothes for the cool t-shirts for all of the students. Thank you to Rob George, the Crabbroker, for a great presentation that extended our classroom learning and for the delicious, best-in-the-business, king crab!



So many captains and crews from the boats have been wonderful to us. We have received countless emails with information and answers, contacts of support, phone calls, and packages from crews and fan groups. What can I say except that we are overwhelmed and overjoyed because so many people have taken an interest in our learning. My students will work on thank you tribute pages in the weeks to come. All of the captains, crews, vessel owners, and fans will not be forgotten.



Our local news station, KLAS Channel 8 and the local newspaper, covered the event. Thank you to them for taking notice of our unique classroom experience and for giving Captain Phil and the boys the kudos they deserve.
