After 32.5 years having the privilege of serving students, educators, and parents as a math teacher, coach, assistant principal, principal, and director of athletics, Tim has retired with his wife, Lisa, and relocated to NC to be closer to family. Tim is currently a substitute teaching in the local school district as he figures out his next chapter.
To make learning math more fun at Hazel Park High School in Hazel Park, teacher Timothy Fulcher occasionally surprises his students with trick questions and conundrums. He organized a Math and Technology Club that allows students to encounter real-world applications of math through field trips to engineering and manufacturing sites. As a member of the school improvement team, Mr. Fulcher helped create and direct "Connection Hour," a program designed to reduce the rate of freshman failures and dropouts by providing students with a nonacademic setting in which to connect with a teacher supervisor, as well as with each other. An expert on the use of graphing calculators, Mr. Fulcher has led district-wide workshops on the technology.
