Cheryl's Story
Wow, it has been a long time. The years have simply flown by. I'm still in Enid where I have been teaching Graphic Arts at Autry Technology Center for the past 16 years.
The fall after graduation I enrolled at Phillips University where I studied elementary education. I graduated in the spring of 1980 only to discover that I would be taking a huge pay cut to be a teacher. (They don't tell you that part when you enroll in college, lol.) I had worked as a Graphic Artist in a local print shop during college and had worked my way into management. I stayed in the printing and graphics field and eventually ended up using my education degree when I ventured to Autry Tech in January of 1993.

e Enid News and Eagle for nearly two decades where I cover stock car racing. Yes, I've learned a lot about cars and even had the opportunity to try my hand behind the wheel a few times. I turned 50 last year and thought that was over, but took another spin in August and had the time of my life.
I married in 1984 and had a wonderful son Justin. I divorced 12 years later and didn't even date for over a decade.
I'm still a nerd at heart. I've very active in my professional organizations at the local, state and national level. I've served as the state president of the OkACTE T & I division twice and as the NW District state advisor for SkillsUSA for the past 14 years. So I guess I really haven't changed, lol.
I'm having the unique experience of working with one of our past teachers. Yes, Bea Paul and I are co-workers. We have had a blast at Autry.
