There’s a little wanderlust in Don Attridge - and it’s taken him and his teaching career far from his hometown of Midland, Ontario. Don attended the University of Western Ontario, the University of Toronto and York University. He has taught at Orangeville D.H.S., Bayview S.S. in Richmond Hill, Thornhill and Thornlea Secondary Schools in Thornhill, Cedarbrae C.I. in Scarborough, Markham D.H.S. and Unionville H.S. In most of those schools, Don was the mathematics department head or assistant head. Don has also taught abroad at Neuchatel Junior College in Switzerland, and Lahr S.S. in Germany. He was Mathematics Consultant with the York Region School Board. Don is one of the founders of the University of Waterloo Mathematics Contests. He has been awarded the Adrian Pouliot Award from the Canadian Mathematics Society. He was president of O.A.T.M. in 1972-73 and Executive Director and a Life Member of O.A.M.E. Don is an inveterate traveller, and a “noteworthy” singer.
