Utah has some large educational shoes to fill. Martell Menlove, the State superintendent of public instruction in Utah, is ending a nearly four-decade career in public education. He has served kids as a classroom teacher, a counselor, and an administrator in the Jordan, Tooele, and Rich districts, and he was my superintendent while I was teaching in the Box Elder district. Twice he was named Superintendent of the Year in Utah before he joined the State office in 2009. His wife, State Representative Rhonda Rudd Menlove, is also a career educator and is retiring after five terms in the Utah State legislature. Utah is losing a great team who inspired kids. They will be missed. We want to wish both Martell and Rhonda all the best in the new adventures they will be taking together. We thank you for what you have done for kids in Utah. ____________________
