- non-traditional student
- preference for students interested in grades 4-8
Arlene taught 4th, 5th and 6th grade students in North Dakota, Madison and Stevens Point for more than 30 years. From her first days in a classroom, she knew she would love teaching. In retrospect, she cannot imagine spending one's life career lacking the daily stimulation from watching elementary students grow intellectually and socially. Her teaching career began in a small North Dakota minting town where her first class of 6th graders consisted of nine girls and twenty boys, two of whom were on probation from a juvenile correctional facility. It was a challenging year, but as it turns out, and invaluable experience. She credits much of whatever success she enjoyed over the rest of her career to what she learned in that first classroom. She learned the importance of developing an environment where all students believe not only their teacher respects and values their contributions, but so do their peers. In her view, there are few, if any, more important classroom management goals.
