MACOMB TOWNSHIP — The lab coat has been hung up for the final time at the high school level.

June 15 marked the last day of school for Macomb Lutheran North chemistry instructor and science department chair Charles Wolf. He retired after 38 years of teaching at North and 44 years overall in the profession.

Wolf, 66, of Mount Clemens, began teaching in 1975 in New York. He later made the move to Macomb Township, starting at North for the 1981-82 school year.

Looking back on nearly four decades at North, Wolf said it’s a great school to teach at with good students.

“The parents give good support,” he said. “It was a lot of fun. The whole ride was pretty exciting and engaging.”

He thanked parents for sending their kids to North and allowing him to be their chemistry teacher.

Being able to teach in a Lutheran environment, he said, was a huge part in being able to share his faith with others.

“I could talk about how God was the one who made it all happen,” he said.
