Margo Jerrim, former Prescott School teacher, featured in Missoulian article -- "WESTERN MONTANA LIVES: Teacher driven by fairness, humor, patience"

Below is a link to a Missoulian article reporting on the life of Margo Jerrim, a former popular and long-time Prescott School teacher.  Margo taught at Prescott School until it was closed in 2004and then taught at Rattlesnake School.

Below are quotes from the September 30th, 2012 article:

Given that she was a Missoula schoolteacher, and for a time president of the Missoula elementary school teachers union, the lives she touched were counted by the hundreds.

“She had a great sense of humor, and she was so patient,” said Dan Rude, who co-taught with Jerrim for many years when Missoula’s Prescott School was still open.

“She always had the right thing to say at the right moment,” he said. “She could really calm a room or conversation – she was good at settling tension.”
