Bon Voyage to Jen Alverson


Say it isn't so... Jen Alverson, the organizational and inspirational backbone of the PACE Anchorage Learning Center will be moving South to spend more time with her family. Her last day in the office will be on Friday, December 12. Jen has worked for the program for many years in both the Ketchikan and Anchorage locations. She always arrived early, stayed late, and volunteered for any extra-curricular PACE activity regardless of time or location. Jen painted fish and flowers on the office windows to warm dreary days, posted student work samples to remind us of our connection to PACE families, and always added her unique perspective as an artist and educator to staff discussions and policy decisions. Her warm smile, genuine laughter, and incessantly upbeat attitude will be deeply missed by all of her PACE co-workers and the scores of students and parents that she has assisted over the years.

Well wishes should be sent to jalverson@craigschools.com or posted to the Anchorage office where we will happily forward them to Jen in the Lower 48.

Happy Trails, Jen...We Miss You Already...
