Charlean has been a teacher for more than 30 plus years. She had some adversity trying to get the degree in teaching. She has always wanted to be a teacher. Her mom was a teacher and she had several Aunts and Uncles that were teachers and Principals. Growing up in a small town with less than 3, ooo people; it is not a lot of promise. She knew that she did not want to live there forever. She was the only child and was very sheltered.
