COU VB sweep Whiting 3-0. Come on out Tuesday afternoon for a big match against West Harrison!
It's time for our weekly Staff Spotlight, where we take time to introduce one of our amazing staff members to you, our community. We hope you enjoy getting to know us a little better.
Today we introduce Mr. Jon Morley. He has the esteemed title of Junior High Science and Math teacher. He first called CO-U home in the fall of 2008, which means he has dedicated 15 years here. During this time his role has changed from High School Science teacher, when we still housed the high school here, to his current title.
All the staff appreciate different things about their job here. In Jon’s case, he enjoys getting to know people and teaching in a historic building. He also loved being able to teach all five of his children.
When asked for advice for staff that are just starting their career here, he stated, “In many ways, Charter Oak-Ute is the best of the three schools in which I have taught. My advice is to stay here for many years.”
Jon’s family includes his wife Jenny, whom he has been married to for 30 years! And their five children who all attended Charter Oak-Ute school. Some of whom, have even come back to CO-U to sub! Outside of school Jon says he really enjoys camping with his family.
Homecoming Week continues tomorrow with Sports Day! Dress up in your favorite sports team outfit!
Tomorrow kicks off Homecoming Week! Roll out of bed and come as you are for Pajama Day!
