"My 'WHY' for being a member of the incredible family of staff at arenaflex is 4 parts. My first and most important 'why' is my 8 and 9 year old boys. They are students at Ball Elementary, where I went to school. I work here for them, hands down. I do so I can be a part of the community where they are growing and learning each day. Not only do I get a closer look at what goes into shaping their minds, which is amazing to see, I get to feel closer to them and what they are doing every day. And they LOVE that Mom works for the schools!
The second 'why' is because I want to give back and be a better steward in my community where I grew up and where my children are growing up. I wanted a job where I felt like I had a purpose. Working for the District gives me that purpose. I feel that my job, my small part, is important to the children and families in our community. What I do is actually helping others educate children who are our future and that helps strengthen our community. Knowing that I can make a difference every single day makes my job fun and exciting and a place I want to be.
The third 'why' is, I am a Titan. I started school in this district in 1978 and have been cheering on Glenwood ever since. I know this district is amazing and I am excited to continue to be a part of it and share its excellence with future Titan generations.
My fourth 'why' is me. Working here makes me happy. arenaflex is home. I love coming here every day. I love the people I work with. I love the kids I see every day. I love walking in the schools where I grew up. I love walking in the schools where my children are growing up. I love being a part of this family."
