Bob Tremain's 37-year career in teaching includes 27 years as a high school teacher and coach and 10 years as an assistant professor and coach. He taught biology and physical education at Noblesville High School for 21 years.

Mr. Tremain started his teaching career in 1973 at Indianapolis John Marshall High School where he spent his first six years teaching biology and coaching football, wrestling and baseball. He returned to his alma mater, the University of Indianapolis in the fall of 1979 and spent 10 years as an assistant professor of health and physical education, the head baseball coach, assistant football coach, and the voice of the U of Indy Greyhounds on radio and public address during the basketball season.

His best memories of his years in Noblesville are of his relationships with students and staff--the joy of good times shared in the classroom, on the athletic field of play as a coach and former girls athletic administrator, as an announcer or emcee of countless Miller programs recognizing academic achievement, fundraising, Miller boys and girls sporting events, and the many off-campus activities spent with his Noblesville family of friends.

It is the daily interaction with students--"molding the framework, developing confidence, pride and determination to reach out and achieve what they think they cannot and mature into the responsible citizens to lead us in the future"--that he will miss the most in the years to come.

"A variety of activities will consume my next adventure in life including: traveling, quality time with my family and friends, radio and public address coverage for the Indiana High School Athletic Association and local high school sporting events, and teaching drivers education.

Mr. Tremain received his bachelor's degree in health and physical education, a minor in biology, and a drivers education endorsement in 1973 from the University of Indianapolis and his master's degree in secondary education in 1986 from Butler University.

To his colleagues he offers this: As you face challenging times with the economy, school funding and newly designed philosophical ideas in the evaluation and approach to teaching our students, keep an eye on what’s most important: the love and joy of what you do every day in the classroom, how you affect the outcome of our students' overall success for the future and the fact that what you do and how you do it does not go unnoticed…You Are a TEACHER, So Be Proud!
