At 91 years old, retirement isn’t on Lou Kokonis’ radar.
He is in his 65th year of teaching math at Alexandria City High School in Northern Virginia — and says he is looking toward the future: “I’m going to try to come next year, if they'll take me.”

Our refreshed infographics were a hit at @NECTFL last week in New York! شكرا جزيلا to all of the #Arabic educators who stopped by our booth – it was great to see you! Stay tuned for a new infographic to be released online later this month 👀 #SpeakArabic#TeachArabic
@MrsJenRodgers@DominionLcps Amazing!! 👏👏 So impressive and kudos for sustaining a connection and exchange and facilitating this experience for your students.
@ASBforACPS@ACPSk12 I understand the need for color coding days off & whether the teachers are working or not etc, but it would be great to also have a list of days off for students (and half days) for year (by ES, MS, HS). Also curious how many instructional days per quarter without testing? Ty!
We were visited today by an IB school from Qatar being that we are one and only school that has an Arabic DL program in NY. Our stdts were excited to meet and take pics with them, & share stories. It was such a great experience for everyone. ❤️❤️ @QFIntl @_jps
