ST. JAMES PLAINDEALER — When Becky Cselovszki ’98 graduated from Fairmont High School, she had a plan in place that involved the field of education. However, she admitted that plan did not include what she is doing today.
The new Redwood Area School District superintendent, who officially stepped into that role July 1, went to South Dakota State University in Brookings, S.D. where she earned a degree in French education.
At the time of graduation from college Cselovszki’s options in the classroom were limited, but she ultimately found a job.
“My first job was in Enid, Okla.,” she said.
Cselovszki served in that role for one year, while her husband continued pursuit of his college degree.
Cselovszki’s husband graduated and got a job in Caledonia, and so she returned to Minnesota.
Cselovszki got a different type of job as an administrative assistant working with attendance and discipline and interacting in that role with students and families.
What Cselovszki discovered is she enjoyed that type of work. So, she returned to school focusing on the administrative side of education earning a graduate degree from St. Cloud State University.
Her first role was as an assistant principal in Hibbing, adding she had a very positive experience in that setting.
