Meet Our 2020 Retirees!

2019–20 Eugene School District 4J Staff Retirements

Meet our retirees!

Congratulations to this year’s retirees!

Join us in honoring 4J’s 2020 retirees! Though we are sad to say goodbye to these amazing 4J staff, we are happy they soon will have more time for family, friends and adventures.

We would like to thank our 65 retirees for their hard work through the years. There are few careers that have as great an impact on our world than taking part in the care and education of our young people.

While we are unable to host our annual retirement event due to the coronavirus pandemic, we still want to want to celebrate our retirees.

We wish you good health and lots of fun in retirement!
