Comment
I began working in Jonesville Community Schools in 1975 as an Industrial Arts/Social Studies teacher. I started the alternative school in 1982, in an effort to provide educational opportunities to students who were not being successful in a traditional school setting. I also started an adult education program and a community education program in 1982. As our student population grew, I became a full-time administrator around 1995, a position I still hold.
