Jenni Greenlaw M.S. Ed. ’25 walked across the stage at Commencement this year with her master’s degree in education. A fifth-grade teacher at James H Bean Elementary School in Sidney, Jenni said she decided to complete the program to gain a higher level of knowledge within her field and expand her future employment opportunities.

“I am proud of completing my degree, while working full time, raising my daughters and supporting my family throughout their own endeavors,” said Jenni.
She said her professors at Thomas College were very understanding and helped her balance her time while she was working full-time and parenting while working towards her degree, and she really appreciated that.
“I am passionate about guiding children to build future stories for themselves and set goals to someday turn their stories into reality,” said Jenni.
