Hello, My name is Benjamin Dotterer, I am a brand new graduate from the school of Criminal Justice with a minor in Sociology from Michigan State University. Throughout my studies I have specialized in youth prevention as it entails to drugs, alcohol, and gang affiliation. I am currently looking at applying for law schools and will be taking the LSAT in October. This spring I worked in the 30th Circuit Court Family division as an intern for the Juvenile Probation section of our judicial system. This will be my 5th summer with OKC Summer Camp. I have also worked with the Before and After school care program for two and a half school years. I have found through my work and studies great worth in having children find ways to work together and problem solve, while encouraging the individualistic side of each child we work with in our everyday programs.

My name is Ninette Duvall. I am very excited to be returning as Assistant Director this year. I have been employed by Community Education since 1998. I have been married to my best friend for 30 years. My husband Lester is a retired Marine who is finishing his second career as a teacher of Autistic students at the Beekman Center in Lansing. I have two grown children. Natasha is married and is teaching Fourth Grade in North Carolina. My son Ray followed in his father's footsteps and served his country in the Marine Corps . After returning from an overseas tour of Afghanistan, he is now living and working in Maryland. I have two dogs (the girls) Lola and Brindal. They are a big part of my life. My hobbies include watching and collecting old classic movies, listening to classical as well as classic rock music, a good London Broil, cinnamon crunch bagels from Panera and a strong cup of black coffee. I am looking forward to this year both professionally and personally and continuing my work here at O.P.M at Central and having a positive impact on your children's lives.
