Hi, Everyone, | |
Since graduation in 1955, I haven't strayed far from Burbank, at least career-wise. I attended UCLA right after JBHS and began teaching at Jefferson in Burbank. I married Jim Adams in 1959 shortly before I graduated from UCLA. Unfortunately, he passed away in 1963, a week before Kennedy was assassinated. I got in touch with Dick Canady, who was recently divorced, and we got married in 1965. In 1967, our daughter Allison was born. I took three years off from teaching when she was born, but went back to teach at Roosevelt for two years in 1970. I then became a resource teacher. I got my Master's Degree and Administrative Credential in 1973 and became the principal of Providencia and Monterey elementary schools, a dual assignment. I was then principal at Emerson from 1977 until 1986 when I went to the District Office where I remain today. I am currently the Director of Elementary Education. |
My daughter is a teacher in Burbank at the Miller Kindergarten School. Miller got so big
they had to move the kindergarten to a separate site. Allison is married and has two children, Robert,
who just turned five and will start kindergarten in Burbank this fall and Ashleigh, who will be a year old< i
August. Allison and her husband live in Simi Valley, and since, I'm in Chatsworth, I get to see them
often. They are both gorgeous children.
