Get to Know a Mighty Hawk: Mr. Crandall

Each month, The Mighty Hawk Messenger profiles a Lucas staff member to help our community get to know him or her better.  This month, we talked to building sub Chris Crandall.

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:  What is your role at Lucas, and how long have you been in that position?

Mr. Crandall:  My role at Lucas is Building Substitute. I have been in that position since Sept. of 2018.  

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:   What did you do prior to joining us at Lucas?

Mr. Crandall:  Prior to Lucas I have been a substitute in both the Iowa City and Solon school districts. 

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:  What’s your favorite part of working at Lucas?  What’s the biggest challenge?

Mr. Crandall:  My favorite part of being at Lucas is the kiddos. I have gotten to know some of them very well. They are all amazing.   The biggest challenge has been trying to keep my immune system strong enough to survive this winter system. 

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:   How did you keep busy during the school cancellations over the last month?

Mr. Crandall:  I kept busy by having a great amount of family time. My wife and I have four kids, so keeping up with all of their activities is a full time job. We played a lot of board games and PS4. 

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:   What’s something about you that Lucas students and families might not guess?

Mr. Crandall:  Something that Lucas and its families might not guess is that I was born in Wisconsin and my jokes are kind of "cheesy"!

The Mighty Hawk Messenger:   If you could teleport to any place in the world right now, where would you choose?

Mr. Crandall:  If I could teleport anywhere in the world right now it would be Finland.
