Andy Boots
Home School Coordinator
Andy Boots is the Home School
Coordinator for Marshall School. His employer is the LYSD and his
boss is Roger Adams. The kind of training necessary for his job is a
workshop every Fall in Bethel and Mountain Village. Andy has a high
school diploma.
Andy works 5 hours a day and expects
to work depending on what happens in the future. He works in the
office and also with the parents of the students having attendance
problems. Four of his job responsibilities are doing attendance every
morning to check on who's missing, talking to parents when their kids
have an attendance problem, letting his boss know when there are
attendance problems, and uploading attendance information to Mountain
Village by modem.
The best thing about his job, he
says, is going out and having a cup of coffee with parents and
explaining to them that together as a group we can fix the attendance
problems at MHS. The worst thing about his job is when the students
don't come to school and play hooky and he has to speak to them about
it.
Andy's advice to young people who
might want his job later is "be on time for work and show that you
can do the job."
