Lisa Fersuson has a big smile. She comfortably embraces kids from any country, and brings smiles to their faces, as well. Lisa is that rare individual who has spent most of her working life overseas. That means, of course, that in addition to her "work" traning, she has become familiar with other cultures and learned other languages. And we're not talking about just the more common languages of Spanish and French. Lisa has worked in, count 'em: Hong Kong, Thailand, Yugoslavia, Senegal, Egypt, Dubai, the United Arab Emirates, Dingapore, Nigeria and West Africa. Summit County is now proud to call her a resident, and the Summit Schools have the benefit of her wide and varied experience. It's even more important, given that Summit County has become a melting pot of visitors and workers from dozens on countries, many of whom have their children in our schools. If you visit our schools, you will definitely want to say hello to Lisa. |
