After launching her first children’s book just before last Christmas in Brooklyn, Grenadian educator Dr. Ansha Clement is heading on a mission to The Gambia, West Africa.
Dr. Clement – a trained principal, a master teacher at Math for America, a chemistry teacher and author of “Baby’s First Science: ABC” – told Caribbean Life on Saturday that she will be among leading educators from the United States and the United Kingdom on a nine-day mission, from Feb. 10-18, which seeks, among other things, to “lay the foundation for a more educated and skilled workforce” in The Gambia.
The Baldwin, Nassau County, Long Island resident said, among educators traveling to The Gambia are William “Billy” Green, the 2023 New York State Teacher of the Year and a master chemistry teacher at A. Philip Randolph Campus High School in New York City; and Alhassan Susso, the 2019 New York State Teacher of the Year, who founded the Namie Foundation, a tribute to his beloved grandmother, dedicated to advocating for educators and global education initiatives.
Susso, who was born in The Gambia and migrated to the US at 16, currently teaches government, economics and personal development at the International Community High School in the South Bronx. Read More
