He taught 2nd grade for 26 years, worked in the tech department for seven years, and part-time as instructional technology support for the past 11 years. He has been in the district for 44 years in total! He loves to travel and work in the yard. Mr. McGuire said, "I've been to a lot of schools giving workshops, and none can match the Monett family.
