t takes a village to raise a child according to the African proverb but I think it applies to teachers as well. In February I will receive the Califor- nia Association of Teachers of English Award of Merit — and I certainly didn’t earn this honor on my own. Years ago, Liberty High School’s Joan Swenson encouraged me, shared her books, and coached me through the Cali- fornia Single Subject Assessment — no doubt the most difficult test I’ve ever tak- en! North High’s English Department Chair June Pixton Gaede taught me how to effectively teach English after her retire- ment. I still hear myself saying things she taught me. Rosedale Middle School’s Becky Miller acted as my master teacher and taught me to focus, embrace the craft of teaching writing, and showed me how important it is to love our students. Panama-Buena Vista Union School District’s Diane Bergstrom showed me such generosity! I thank her mentally when I use time-tested material devel- oped by her which makes me a better teacher more than 10 years later! Warren Junior High’s Helen Venosdel kept me focusing on the positive as my mentor during my first — very difficult — year, while Marily Anton kept me laugh- ing, assuring I wouldn’t drown in my tears! (So many teachers bail out before their fifth year.) Actis JH professional Brenda Hallum came to Warren and treated me like an equal even though I had nothing on this amazing teacher! She made me feel like a professional — asking my opinion, what I had in mind for the future, and sharing anything and all with me. Thompson Junior High’s Jonathon Wall and Stonecreek’s Nick Preston taught me to embrace data and glean all I could out of it to better support our students. Colleagues like Amy Luther, Lana Mar- tin, Denise Morris, and Jennifer Bezdek, epitomize teamwork. When it comes to principals, Wayne Winter, George Thornburgh, and Gerrie Kincaid were so supportive, positive, and downright fun! Darryl Johnson, my current principal, has taught me to look at the big picture in education starting most days with philo- sophical bantering, anecdotes, and a wee bit of counseling provided by each of us! The students? They’ve taught me the most, by far! I could go on for days about all the lessons they’ve provided. The most important: keep loving them while enthu- siastically teaching the California Content Standards! Finally, I just don’t know what I’d do without the daily support of educator Kim Graham, my friend, sounding board, and laughing buddy. Yes, it takes a village to raise a child, and so many professional, masterful, gener- ous, and kind people to “raise” a teacher.

These additional duties, he noted, will help shape strategic marketing initiatives at Pepperdine preserving and advancing Pepperdine as a leading academic Christian univer- sity. Hinkle added, “As the higher education landscape becomes increasingly competitive, this role will better enable Pepperdine to become more intentional and strategic about our positioning in the marketplace.” Gibson’s parents, Mike and Gail Gibson, are long- time residents of Bakersfield.
