Manhattan —
Late last year, the Fund for the City of New York, along the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation, named the first winners in the its new program: the Sloan Awards for Excellence in Teaching Science and Mathematics in New York City Public High Schools.
Homer Panteloglou, a science teacher at the High School of Economics and Finance in Lower Manhattan, was among the educators honored. Panteloglou, his students say, is an inspiration inside and outside of the classroom.
