About Me

My photo
Darci Farnum
I am in my 10th year of teaching Art (9th of TAG) at Graettinger (now Graettinger-Terril). It has always felt like "home" more than any other school where I've taught/worked. Last fall I finished my Internship and worked toward obtaining my TAG Endorsement so that I may better serve our students. I'm also half way to my Masters in Education! woohoo! But not sure yet whether I want to spend my entire summer holed up in my bedroom like I did last summer. I've been married for 27 years and have 2 children-Graye, 18 (a recent Grad of ELC HS)now living on Kauai in Hawaii, where is taking online courses and nannying for my cousin Brad's 2 boys who are 3 and nearly 6. Payton, 13, (he has Cerebral Palsy, but loves music, videos, books and showing sheep from his wheelchair). Photography is my hobby. I also love to "read" audiobooks (it's hard to hold a book and edit photos or mow the lawn at the same time-- Thank God for my iPod!) and spend time with friends and family. I look forward to using my new found knowledge to help students achieve success and find their path in Post Secondary Education/"Real Life".
