Mary Flohr has taught at DePue Unit District since 1980. She
began as the district's media specialist, switching to high
school English in
1989. In 1998 she began a career education program at the high
school which recently received a Connections 2001 Award of Distinction
from the Illinois State Board of Education. Mary uses the Internet
in both her English and Careers curriculums, and feels that it
has added a very special dimension to education in the twenty-first
century.
She and her husband
live in North Central Illinois on a farm overlooking
the Illinois River Valley.
