Michael J. Izbicky

I didnt know you passed away Mr. I.. One of the most down to earth Sweetest Science Teachers.. Rest Peacefully Love,

Altrovise ❤

I am writing my personal statement as part of the application for Harvard's Graduate School of Education and I write about Mr. I, as the teacher who challenged me to write a paper for his class in the fall of 1986 when I had only been in the US for a few months and didn't speak English. He accepted as many revisions as it took to get the paper in a state that was acceptable and fair to grade. 17 years later, I became a high school math teacher and Mr. I's science class on the southwest side...

Wow. So sorry to get this news. I was sharing stories of my favorite science teacher with my kids and telling them stories about the boa "Mr. I " had. I also remember the Jeep he had. He oozed cool. I grew up and got the Jeep but could never swing the beard and ponytail. Many fond memories. Wishing your family all the best Mr. I . Thanks for the hall passes.

RIP Mr. Izbicky! You will always be fondly remembered and appreciated by many of your former students - especially those in the '70s from Skiles Middle School.

Best teacher at Nichols. Always knew he was there, his Jeep (Snoplow) was usually parked out front. He will be missed, rest in peace Mr. I...you were truly one of the good guys.

Mr. Izbicky was an amazing teacher. I still remember meeting him on a tour of Nichols Middle School in 1979 and how welcoming he was to me. I was very fortunate to go on to have him as my science teacher.

We send our deepest condolences and love..

I went to school with him and will miss him.
