Lisa Sands
Describing herself as an optimistic philomath, Lisa Sands, mother of 2 young women, is an enthusiastic bundle of energy who teaches not only high school English and journalism, but also is a 34-year certified group fitness instructor. Usually awake well before dawn, Lisa said if she had the money to fund it, rather than teach, she would be a life-long student, earning one degree after another, enriching her desire to learn about other cultures, religions, philosophies, and other fascinating concepts she’s yet to uncover. Lisa says she enjoys a little bit of everything - she officially hates making decisions - therefore she is willing to try anything once. Proudly admitting she is almost 53, Lisa is transitioning into the next phase of life - the ubiquitous “empty nest” era of life. She will be kept company by her 2 dogs and lots more learning via exploring with her friends for years to come hopefully.
Wade Fulton
Wade Fulton has been mistaken for the actor Vincent D'Onofrio on many occasions, including one notable night in Austin, Texas. He likes people less than he used to and enjoyed the COVID-19 isolation way more than he feels he should have. He's an English teacher, has two boys, and is married to a structural engineer; all of his passwords have something to do with famous novelists, but he can never remember them and spends a great deal of time following recovery links. Wade loves baseball, is a life-long supporter of the Boston Red Sox and loves music and travel. Wade isn't sure he believes that the self is anything terribly significant, just a mechanism for understanding 'the other' and understands that change comes from within but sometimes these are more matters of accepting who you are.

She's taught herself an array of home improvement skills and is never quite "done" updating and beautifying her interior spaces. That's especially true of the chambers of her gray matter!
