2025-26 begins my 36th year as an educator.  I am a product of the Everett School District, and am proud to have spent my entire career educating the students in this community. I have taught elementary school, middle school ELA, science, remedial reading, and 12 years as a librarian. I am happy to be back at Eisenhower to teach 6th grade science. I live in Everett and have a son who is a junior at Everett High School. aruotsala@everettsd.org.
