User:Justin L Raines

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hi. I am Justin Raines. This is my Wikipedia page. I am a native of Montesano, Washington. I am a high school social studies teacher. I thought that I would create a Wikipedia page to highlight my hobbies and interests, as its generally a bad idea for teacher's to have pages on sites like Myspace and Facebook.


[edit] Mini-Biography

I have lived in Montesano for my whole life, except when I went to college. After high school I went to Grays Harbor College to work on my Associates degree. From there, I moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington. After getting my Bachelor's degree, I went on to Western Washington University to attain my Residency certificate in Secondary Education. I was a substitute teacher for three years, mostly in East Grays Harbor County. In the Summer of 2007, I went to Central Washington University to become a Driver's Ed teacher. Last year, I finally received a contract position. Recently, I have had some health problems, which I am still battling. While getting those under control (hopefully), I want to continue teaching, and eventually go back to college to get my Professional Teaching certification and Master's degree.
