Claypit Teacher Wins Johnson Travelship Award

Wayland Patch 2/2/12: Claypit Teacher Wins Johnson Travelship Award. Robbin Rossi’s three children will get to see places of their birth this summer thanks to an award their mother, a Claypit Hill School first grade teacher, has received. Rossi, a 26-year Wayland Public Schools teacher, Monday afternoon accepted the 2012 Mary L. Johnson Travelship Award during a reception at the Wayland Town Building. The award is given annually to a Wayland Public Schools teacher who "loves children, respects them and helps them grow beyond themselves." It is awarded in memory of Mary Johnson, a Wayland High School graduate who died in the bombing of Pan Am Flight 103 over Lockerbie Scotland on Dec. 21, 1988. The Johnson family established the Mary L. Johnson Travelship Award with the insurance money received after her death.
