Santee has taught within seven different decades, starting in the late 60s all the way to the current day where she teaches at Reading Senior High School.
"It's really crazy to think about how many lives she has touched over the span of her career...she has taught multiple generations," said Santee's granddaughter Katie Reynolds.
With many decades of teaching experience, she brings generations of wisdom and life lessons for students.
"I tell my students when you have to select a career, do it for you," said Santee.
