Al Yankovic's Favorite Teacher

[TMBJon]

I am glad that Al's foray into children's literature is resulting in more articles like this:

Well written, Al.

This is why I'm going to be a teacher. Only one year left before I'm certified. I absolutely loved that article and loved Al's book. It's so cool to learn this now from Al. I just hope that someday I may have a student that would have a similar remembrance of something that I may do. So cool that teachers meant so much to Al.

So cool that teachers meant so much to Al.

IIRC, when Al was Grand Marshal of the Lynwood Christmas Parade in 2006, he visited Lynwood High and gave a gold record to one of his old teachers (I want to say a math teacher, but I may be wrong)

You are correct; he gave it to his 9th grade math teacher.
