Farewell to Mr. Mendenhall

Submitted by heidi.groneman on

Mr. Mendenhall is leaving Rees Elementary after teaching here for 25 years! He has been an absolutely fabulous teacher and really knows how to engage his students with fun activities, group work, and technology. He is known for all his fun puppets, green screen, chess tournaments, and many other fun ways he encouraged and taught his class.  He will be missed here at Rees, but we wish him all the best as he transfers to Mt. Nebo to teach science. His coworkers had this to say about him:

Mrs. Wilson is leaving after teaching the past three years at Rees.  She has been an absolutely amazing teacher and coworker.  There has never been a time when she hasn't done her absolute best for her students and as a member of the Rees team.  She will be missed dearly, but we are excited for the opportunity that she has to transfer to Valley View Middle School in Salem and teach 6th grade.  No matter where she goes, she will do an absolutely phenomenal job!

Mrs. Crandall has decided to retire after working 26 years for Nebo School District.  She is an absolutely FANTASTIC teacher, coworker, and leader.  Anytime anyone needs anything, she is there to help, guide, or simply to listen.  Mrs. Crandall has put her whole heart and soul into trying to make a difference in the lives of her students and what a difference she has made here at Rees!

Thank you Mr. Goodman

Submitted by heidi.groneman on

We are sad to see Mr. Goodman leave Rees.  He has been so great to work with and has done a wonderful job with the students here at Rees.  Co-workers said this about Jordan, 

"Jordan made every collaboration meeting fun. He was always joking and teasing everyone."

"Jordan was so great with the students he worked with.  He was always finding ways to make them feel comfortable and to make sure they were safe and happy.  We will miss him in collaboration and seeing his smiling face around the school and on the playground."
