May of 2010 brought retirement for me. I spent 33 years in the world of public education. My first 19 years were all spent at Pleasant Grove Junior High School in the Alpine School District. I began my career teaching physical education and health education. After 9 years, I spent 3 years working on a Masters Degree in Library and Information Science. I also changed positions at P.G. Junior and became the Library-Media Teacher, a position I held for 9 years. My last year was spent as a Teacher On Special Assignment in the position of assistant principal.
At the conclusion of my 19th year, I applied for and was hired as a UniServ Director for Eastern Utah UniServ in the Utah Education Association. Fourteen years later, I finally decided it was time to retire.
It's still difficult to believe that I have finished my career in education. Seems like only yesterday....
Beckett Lee Arnold was born on June 15, 2010 to Brian and Shelly Arnold. His big brother is Coleson. He looks nothing like this now that he is 9 months old. Auntie Arlene needs to take some new pictures of him!
