Former Prescott School teacher Dan Rude named international president of Sons of Norway

Missoula Son of Norway named international president

The above link is to a Missoulian article dated October 27, 2008, reporting on former Prescott School teacher Dan Rude and his involvement in the Sons of Norway organization. As reported in the article, Dan Rude was a long-time teacher at Prescott School. 

Quotes from the article follow - 

"These were the beginnings of one Norwegian family in America. Now, their grandson lives in Missoula and values this heritage so much he has risen through the ranks of the largest Norwegian cultural organization outside Norway to become the international president of the Sons of Norway."

"For the past 40 years, Rude has been a teacher in Missoula, working for 12 of those years at Franklin School, and 28 at Prescott School. After retiring, the 65-year-old Rude got more involved in Sons of Norway and now receives a stipend for his work as international president, a mantle he assumed last month."

It's great that Dan has risen so high in the Sons of Norway organization.

Prescott School Missoula would like to thank Dan Rude for his many years of teaching at Prescott School.
