FORMER STUDENTS . . . "WHERE ARE THEY NOW?"

It's always fun to see what former students are up to!

Here are what a few of my former students have been doing in the last 6 months.

ASHNA BORCHARDS HORMAN

Ashna with her favorite 5th grade teacher!

December 30, 2011

Here's Ashna with 3 original Mouskateers:  Bobby (my favorite), Sherry, and Tommy.

When Miss Mitchell grew up...she was a little girl towards the end of the original

"Mickey Mouse Club" show.  So fun watching it on the little

12 inch black and white t.v.

Who knew that a former student would pick them up, drive them around, and show them around!

Ashna is a Production Stage Manager for Disney California Adventure. She is in charge of the Atmosphere Show Five & Dime. She also worked on shows such as: Aladdin-AMusical Spectacular, World of Color, Red Car, Newsboys, and many special events throughout the year. 

I'm sure she got her love for Disney in my class! 

DAN BLAKE

Walking the red carpet at the "Classy Awards!"

(I'm sure he learned to be classy in the 5th grade!)

...and on the cover of "Inc." magazine.  

DAVID WESTERN

Playing with his band "Highbench" at Shea Stadium (Mets)

in New York City.

(Yes, his mom is Mrs. Western who taught at our school.  And guess what road

David grew up on?  You guessed it...Highbench!)

MATTHEW WESTERN

Matt (right) is David's (left) older brother.
They were appearing on the CBS Sunday Morning Show!
Matt is currently the director of all Marketing Development for a musical instrument company

in Asia!

(I'm sure David and Matt got their love for guitars in 5th grade when we used to play the ukulele!)

You gotta love this!

JESSICA ROSE

Jessica did a stint at our school for 3 weeks last year in the 5th grade.

This is her teaching in my classroom.

She is currently a 6th grade teacher at

Ridgeline Elementary in Highland.


SAM PAYNE

 Sam is a popular entertainer and recording artist.

Another student who made it BIG...after playing the ukulele in my class!
ELIZA WREN PAYNE McDERMOTT

 Sam's little sister is a very popular recording artist and
entertainer in England.
Once again...BOOYA for the ukulele!

MALINDA PACK POWERS

 She and her husband were delegates to the
Republican National Convention!

JACOB FISH

Another former student who was a delegate to the
Republican National Convention!
(Governor Romney at the podium!)

CLINT MOWER

 Clint is currently playing minor league football for the
Virginia Beach Destroyers . . . #57

Clint #39, playing for the University of Utah in the
SUGAR BOWL!
(He learned this move in our grade level kickball tournament!)

CHRIS HALL

Currently a pilot for a private plane company.

LARISA FRASER

Lara (what she went by in 5th grade) is a model.

She travels all over the world! 

Her boyfriend won the National League MVP in baseball last season!

 She also appeared on CSI Vegas this past spring (she's standing)

 Lara also appears in magazines, on the cover of magazines, and ad signs like the one above.

(I'm sure I must have taught her her modeling skills!)

MALISSA CANDLAND LEVESQUE

Malissa (2nd from left) is standing by a White House door.

She is doing graduate work at George Washington University.

Malissa (I also taught her twin sister, Machelle!) works for the

WHITE HOUSE OFFICE OF MANAGEMENT AND BUDGET!

Witnessing President Obama taking off in Marine One (Presidential helicopter)

is all in a day's work for Malissa!

Malissa, I'm definitely sure, learned how great the government can be in 5th grade!

 TEREN CHRISTENSEN

 Teren has always been my hero!

Here he is receiving his Master's Degree in Sociology at BYU.

His father, pictured with him, is Todd Christensen.

Todd is also a hero...he was a star football player at BYU, and has two SUPER BOWL RINGS!

But, Teren is my real hero!

ERIC AUFHAMMER

Just another typical day for Eric...with the

PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!

Eric is serving our country in Afghanistan.

It's not just a picture of the president from afar...it's WITH the president!

ALISON MILLS SKEA

Alison recently moved from North Carolina to Alpine.
She got here just in time to begin her dream job!
Alison is currently being a room mother in her daughter's classroom.
Who's her daughter's teacher???
Well, it's none other than
MISS MITCHELL!!!
(I think this is the BEST occupation of all!!!)

Many former students are successful!

I just think these students are pretty unique!
Former students...tell me your story!
