Mr. Simmons was possibly the best history teacher that I had. He went out of his way to make you want to learn about the subjects he taught, whether about the world or Canada or Manitoba. He was strict but extremely fair in how he taught. - Posted by: Patrick Parsons (Student and later learned as a student teacher) on: Jan 19, 2026
