Clear Creek-Amana EA


My last school visit for the day on February 22nd was in Clear Creek-Amana. I had the honor of spending time with association president Bev Stolfus, a 5th grade teacher in the Clear Creek-Amana Elementary building in Oxford. Bev excitedly shared that the Clear Creek-Amana Schools were successful in passing a bond issue on February 14th. As Bev led me on a guided tour throughout her building, it was clear that this growing school district was busting at its edges in this elementary building. It was extra special to see the great things Bev was working on with her 5th grade class too.


Another energetic teacher/leader I had the opportunity to meet and observe her work magic with students was 3rd grade teacher Marcia Charbon (pictured at right). Marcia shared with us just a few of the projects and committees she is working hard as a member of within the school and in the community. Teacher leaders are often asked to lead projects in our communities because they have great ideas, have great organizing skills and they know how to get things done.

Thanks for the great teacher/leaders like Bev Stolfus and Marcia Charbon that I met in Clear Creek-Amana!
