A high school English teacher from Oxford, Massachusetts...

Kathy Casavant

Students: "Good luck Mrs. Casavant!"

Okay, I'm Kathy Casavant, and I teach English at Oxford High School in Oxford, Massachusetts.

Will the subject you teach help you on Jeopardy!?
I hope so! [Laughs]

What was your reaction when you found out you made it on Jeopardy!?
I was stunned. I've been watching Jeopardy! since I was 14 years old, and I always said someday I want to go on it. So, I was stunned.

What do you enjoy most about teaching?
The best thing about teaching is the students. They're so young, they're so vibrant, and they keep me young.

Tune in! You might learn a thing or two!
