Mr. Matthew Kegelman


Hi! I am in my 31st year of being a math teacher and my 14th year of being the transportation director for Salesianum School. This year I teach Freshman and Sophomores in my honors Geometry/Algebra II class, a Sophomore Geometry phase 3class,  and Senior Trigonometry. Also, as transportation director I arrange for student transportation by contracting and setting up bus routes and assisting parents searching for car pools. I assist Fr. Bill McCandless in decisions regarding inclement weather. Course descriptions, grading policies, worksheets, assignments,  in addition to bus schedules can be found on this page. My email address is mkegelma@salesianum.org

My family consists of wife Mary of 29 years, daughters Jessica, a graduate of Drexel University and production manager at WYBE television in Philadelphia, and Julia, a Doctor of Physical Therapy working at The Back Clinic in Wilmington. This is a photograph of us on our family vacation in Hawaii.

Hobbies include tennis, volleyball, Ping-Pong, biking, billiards, and chess. I run an after school chess club, and I am in a band with 4 other faculty members, Tom Cleary, my brother Dan, Mark Quinn, and Nick Vavala.  All 5 of us are Sallies teachers and therefore, we are called "8th & West". I am moderator of the chess club and also the coach of the math teams that compete statewide in a league with over 70 teams. We have won the state championship 5 times in the last 29 years and have never placed lower than 10th in all those years.
