Making mistakes with students is an opportunity to apologize

Third Space with Jen Cort

Jim Malone, a Math and Physics teacher at Mercersburg Academy since 1979, shares his unique relationship with mistake-making and connects it to his role as an aspiring ally.
Jim graduated from Swarthmore High, an excellent public school outside Philadelphia, in 1973.

He has always been good at math and science but could have done better in English or History. Jim liked reading good books and discussing them in English class, but needed to be more patient and take the time to learn how to write a good essay. He found History boring in school, but is now interested in it.

Jim attended the University of Michigan and earned a bachelor's in Wildlife Biology. He says he fell asleep doing reading assignments in high school and college, was talkative in class, and was halfway between neat and sloppy. I love rebuilding cars, trapping hawks, climbing, and listening to classic rock and whitewater canoe.

Jim has coached Football, Basketball, Whitewater Canoeing, and Rock Climbing; he has a wife, Sue, and two daughters, Molly and Jessie.
