Here is my update, or 30 years in 300 words or less: I graduated from ISU in 1979, and began teaching in Normal, IL, at Fairview School. I completed my masters {in 1981}, and then began working on my doctorate. I left Fariview in 1984 to be the assistant principal at Oakdale, an elementary school near the original Normal Community High. After 3 years as an assistant, I spent 3 years as a building principal, the last year at Glenn Elementary. At that point I had my PhD, so I took an assistant superintendency in a district near Pekin. I spent 4 years there, and then took the superintendency in Havana, IL. I only spent one year there before I headed to Ball-Chatham, near Springfield, as their superintendent.

3 years there, I took the superintendency at LaSalle-Peru High School, in northern Illinois. I spent 6 years there and then served as superintendent in District 59, where I retired in 2012. Our kids are 37 {Ben}, 35 {Sarah} and 34 {Rebeccah}. Ben is an accountant in the Chicago area, and he and his wife have 2 daughters, our granddaughters {who owns me!} Ava and Lily. They are so much fun! Sarah and her husband just had their first child, Norah Elizabeth. {YEAH!}. Beccah and her husband live in Milwaukee. Beccah earned her PhD in psychology from the University of Notre Dame, and works with TBI patients at Froedtert Hospital. My wife, Linda, taught special ed before she retired in 2013. My life in a nutshell! :)
