About the Teacher

My name is Dori Smyth and I am the building STEM teacher at MTES! I have been a teacher in Mendham Township for 20 years now! I was a 4th grade teacher, gifted and talented teacher, and STEM teacher. I have a master's degree in educational practice and became an author 6 years ago. I wrote my book called, "The Story of Witch Hazel" that was published through the Dorrance Publishing Company. It was one of my proudest moments because it's a non-fiction story about my life as a little girl and how I celebrated Halloween! To learn more about me, click my website link above!
