Claire’s excellence in teaching was, to my memory anyhow, first officially acknowledged when she became Vermont Teacher of the Year in 1970. Since then she has been honored many times including in a wonderful documentary made about her titledĀ The World in Claire’s Classroom and in receiving a Honorary Master of Arts from Marlboro College.

“A teaching team from Boston termed Mrs. Oglesby’s school “one of the best in the New England area.”
The Independent Press, Thursday, February 4, 1971
