Board of Education, has been recognized by Cambridge Who's Who for demonstrating dedication, leadership and excellence in education.
A four-time recipient of the Teacher of the Year Award from the Plainfield School System, Albert J. Musmanno enjoyed a fruitful 41-year career as an educator. He spent most of his career with the Plainfield Board of Education, where he specialized in the sciences. As a lead teacher, Mr. Musmanno taught science classes, and mentored and trained other teachers on instruction techniques and classroom management. He also developed parent-teacher science workshops and ensured adherence to the New Jersey State Science Core Curriculum Content Standards through teacher training in workshops and as the head of the NSTA's Building a Presence for Science Program in the state of New Jersey. He is also a published author who has written science songs and poems in order to make learning enjoyable for students. Mr. Musmanno's philosophy is: "The magic of rhyme will make learning easier most of the time." His book represents this philosophy.
Respected by his peers for his expertise, Mr. Musmanno was selected to coordinate Plainfield's science curriculum for students from kindergarten to the eighth grade. He also served as an open classroom usage consultant, science demonstration teacher and curriculum coordinator, and held statewide workshops at public and private schools. In addition, he developed school system science fairs as well as "regional" science fairs for grades K-8 at Union County College in Plainfield, N.J. He was even asked to travel to Puerto Rico and South Korea to train science teachers and school principals. Though officially in retirement, Mr. Musmanno continues his involvement in the academe by consulting on curriculum, hands-on science workshops, and other related issues. He spends time judging science fairs in Plainfield and is presently participating in community work by operating a carnival-type fundraiser for his church. Additionally, he is in the midst of writing a book about fundraising for school systems and groups as well as another book containing poems and songs about science. He attributes his success and longevity to two of his two role models: Mr. Jones, his high school biology teacher, and Dr. Peck, the head of the Center for Elementary Science at FDU.
Mr. Musmanno received a master of education in science in 1982 and a bachelor of arts in science in 1968. He is a certified science teacher (K-12) through the State of New Jersey. Additional affiliations include the New Jersey Education Association, the National Education Association, the New Jersey Science Teachers Association, the New Jersey Science Convention Committee, the National Science Teacher Association, the Knights of Columbus and many national science organizations. In recognition of outstanding commitment to the field of academics as well as his unprecedented professional longevity, Mr. Musmanno was selected as Cambridge Publishing's VIP of the Year for the 2010/2011 year.
