Being a teacher for 51 years, as the state grapples with a growing teacher shortage makes the feat much more rare.
In August 2022, the Indiana Department of Education had 2,500 jobs available. Now, that number’s just under 3,300, but Marcie Durbin’s now on her 51st year of teaching, at Westfield Washington School District.
It’s been a good fit alright, because she started in the district back when she was in school and student teaching.In her 51 years, the district has expanded from one elementary to six elementary schools. The best improvement in her opinion is the air conditioning and technology upgrades. WRTV interviewed Durbin in 1992, about a $1 million investment in fiberoptic technology at the school district.
“I love to see the kids light up. When they learn how to read, because mostly when I start with them, they’re not reading,” said Drubin.Jami Harris is Durbin's instructional assistant of fourteen years.
