Teacher retires after 51 years

A teacher with a 51-year career is stepping down. Chemistry teacher Freida Griffin says at age 81, it's time to retire. She began her career in Pleasantville and moved to Des Moines with her husband in 1964. She taught for 17 years at the former Kurtz Junior High School, which is now Lincoln South, then for 11 years at McCombs Middle School. She's been a substitute teacher for the past 19 years at McCombs, Weeks, Callanan and Brody middle schools and Roosevelt and Lincoln high schools.
