Today's Washington Post carries a story about Louis Kokonis, a math teacher at Alexandria City High School who died on January 4. He was 91, and had checked in at the school on January 3. He spent more than 60 years teaching in Alexandria, Virginia--if the statement that he began teaching during Eisenhower's administration is correct, he likely had 65 or more years teaching there.
It was always my impression that Latin teachers were born 50, and remained 50 until their first students had retired from the workforce. But evidently math teachers can compete.
