Robin Pyrchalla grew up in Buffalo, New York. As a young child, she dreamed of one day becoming an educator. She felt a special calling to help children who come from disadvantaged backgrounds. After graduating high school, she attended the State University of New York at Cortland. She studied with a dual major in Childhood Education and Special Education. Her goal was to get certified to teach 1st through 6th grade. This certification was especially hard to obtain, attesting to Pyrchalla’s dedication to her dreams.
After only one semester in college, Robin Pyrchalla was accepted into the C.U.R.E. scholar’s program. Cortland’s Urban Recruitment of Educators is a program that requires accepted college students to take three courses specially designed to teach them about the problems with education in urban areas. These classes covered a variety of topics including urban education and the roles that gender, race and class play in education. These classes prepared Pyrchalla for what working in a diverse environment would bring. They also gave her an idea of just how much influence she could have over her students’ futures. In this way, the C.U.R.E. program both inspired her and made her a more knowledgeable educator.
Pyrchalla also completed two student teaching opportunities while in college. One was in a special needs classroom, while the other was at an urban elementary school. Robin enjoyed teaching these students and making a difference, but from this experience she learned that she was better suited to teach older students. Pyrchalla adamantly pursued her dreams and earned the best grades that she could.
Her academic success earned her yet another prestigious opportunity. After being recommended by a professor for outstanding academic achievement, she was admitted to the International Honor Society called Kappa Delta Pi. This society honors students who have not only done well in their studies, but have demonstrated a sincere dedication to educating others. In 2005, Robin Pyrchalla graduated with honors from the State University of New York at Cortland. However, she was not yet finished with her education.
While working with special education students in a co-teaching position for the Board of Cooperative Educational Services (BOCES) in Nassau County, Robin Pyrchalla was accepted into New York University’s Graduate English Education program in the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education and Human Development. This is one of the most competitive education programs in the nation. Here, new and innovative teaching methods were encouraged to students, and these methods made lasting impressions on Pyrchalla’s teaching style. Once again, Ms. Pyrchalla proved herself to be an impeccable student. Not only did she graduate with a Master’s Degree in English Education, she maintained a high GPA of 3.78 and earned inclusion into yet another honor society.
The international collegiate honor society Sigma Tau Delta English Society recognized Robin Pyrchalla’s professionalism and determination in English education and allowed her membership. This organization is dedicated to promoting interest in literature and the English language while also fostering literacy within the community. It advocates all facets of English, including literature, writing and language. Throughout the world, this society has more than 825 local chapters. As a member, Pyrchalla took a leadership role by planning and managing Sigma Tau Delta events.
On top of her education, Pyrchalla still worked full-time with BOCES. This organization sponsors educational opportunities and resources to New York schools that lack funding for proper equipment and technology. She took a lot away from this experience and gained a new appreciation for the duties of special education professionals. After two long years of work and study, Robin Pyrchalla graduated from NYU Steinhardt School with a Master’s Degree and certification to teach English to students in grades 7-12. After graduation Pyrchalla accepted a teaching position at Flushing Senior High School, one of the largest high schools in Queens, where she still remains today.
Pyrchalla has always maintained an active life outside of the classroom as well. She believes in staying healthy physically as well as mentally. She has also always understood the importance of incorporating a little bit of fun into everyday activities. Robin Pyrchalla has become quite the talented skier, frequently spending skiing weekends in the Poconos with friends. Over the years, Pyrchalla has also made a habit of hiking and participating in various other outdoor activities. A true New York native, she has been a fan of the Yankees, Giants and Buffalo Sabres since just about birth. Some of her favorite childhood memories have been at these sporting events with family members. Additionally, Pyrchalla learned at a young age to appreciate the arts in New York. She has seen her favorite musical “Wicked” on Broadway more than once.
Charity was another passion instilled in Pyrchalla early in life. She has become a frequent supporter of St. Jude’s Children Research Hospital. As she has always been driven to enhance the lives of kids, Pyrchalla felt compelled to reach out and help young people affected by cancer. St. Jude’s is one of the leading pediatric research facilities in the country, saving countless lives each year. With the help of volunteers like Pyrchalla, this facility has built for itself a reputation for excellent patient care, never turning away patients who cannot afford the proper medical care.
