Madeline Scotto just turned 100 years old and refuses to retire.  She's been at the same school for the past 60 years!

Scotto works as a math teacher at St. Ephrem Elementary School in Brooklyn, the same school she attended as a child.  She was in the very first graduating class in 1928!

She had been a full-time teacher until about 10 years ago and now teaches three days a week.  She says she refuses to sit back and do nothing.  A life-long resident of Brooklyn, Mrs. Scotto is a mother to five, a grandmother to nine and a great grandmother to 16.
