This is a second career for me. Ms. Gilroy was a Social Worker for 27 years. I worked with DYFS, which was the state's child protection agency. Through those years, Ms. Gilroy had been a guard at a detention center for teenage boys and an investigator of abused children, where she placed over 100 special needs and older children in permanent adoptive homes and then became an inspector of residential treatment facilities. Ultimately, Ms. Gilroy was the supervisor of the foster care inspector bureau.  Ms. Gilroy decided to start teaching in 2005 when my oldest child started middle school and has been here ever since where I teach Industrial Technology. Ms. Gilroy has a daughter who is a Lt. in the US Navy after attending Annapolis and Cambridge in England and a son who is a boat restorer in Rhode Island. At 20 he purchased his own home that, he has renovated by himself (mom helped)  Life is GOOD!

I live with my Wife Kimberly and daughter Zeia in Hillsborough, NJ. I have the rare privilege to teach Wood Shop and Physical Education at Hillsborough High School.  I am also the Boys Head Coach for Cross Country and Spring Track.  My passion to create has allowed me to own and operates a small custom furniture company where I aspires to make heirloom quality wooden furniture.  

I am affectionately known as Rosey by my athletes and students.   My purpose as a teacher and coach is to be that ONE Teacher/Coach you will always remember and remain in your life throughout your adulthood.  I choose to live my life simply… by being present with who I am with, keeping my world small,  and always be willing to give more.
