Thinking of Ms. Cadmus and remembering what a wonderful teacher she was. The best! She gifted me a beautiful turquoise bracelet when I was in the 3rd grade and called me her angel. I´ll never forget her.

Remembering my favorite teacher from School 13 in Paterson. Ms. Cadmus was a great educator and a wonderful person. Ms. Cadmus peaked my interest in art and helped me to express myself. She always called me her little angel and gave me a beautiful turquoise bracelet which I cherished for years. Loved her and will remember her always.
