My guest today is Alison Babb-Brott. This is her second year teaching first grade in our school district though she's been teaching for about a decade. Her family has a rich history in our town. Her great great grandfather was superintendent of the Knox Woolen Mill in downtown Camden from 1889 to 1956. He worked at the mill for total of 70 years. When I moved to Camden as a child in 1974, Ali's grandfather was superintendent of the very same mill. I became good friends with Ali's mother and her aunt. Her father also grew up locally. Though Ali was born and raised in Massachusetts, it's no wonder she feels this place is home. I have no doubt she can feel the presence of her deep heritage here. Our school district is so fortunate that she returned because she quickly became a beloved teacher at our elementary school.
