Alder Alumni: Bethany Beachy

Bethany Beachy, Guest Writer

My name is Bethany Beachy and I graduated from JA in 2004. I was born and raised a Pioneer and attended JA from kindergarten to high school graduation. In high school I played volleyball and was involved with Spanish Club, drama, NHS, and I was our class secretary.
I went to Ohio University and majored in Early Childhood Education in 2007, then received a Master’s Degree from Dayton in Educational Leadership in 2009. I spent the first seven years of my teaching career at Monroe Elementary in first grade, but moved to Plain City Elementary this school year to teach kindergarten. I am also married to my JA high school sweetheart, Steven, and we have three future pioneers – Luke, Lucy, and Lincoln!
