Mrs. Earley
Hi, my name is Andree’ (pronounced Andrea) Earley. I grew up in nearby Loma Rica and attended
Marysville
High School. I showed Limousin Cattle extensively in
California
and hauled cattle as far away as Illinois
growing up. I attained a love for cattle and other animals while spending so
much time at these shows. I attended
Yuba
Community College and transferred
to CSU, Chico. I majored in Agriculture with an option in
Animal Science with no idea of what I wanted to do when I grew up the day I
graduated. A one year agriculture
teaching position came open at Sierra
Junior College while the teacher
was on a sabbatical so I took that. I
thoroughly enjoyed teaching at the Junior College level yet as that job ended
an opportunity to do research at CSU, Chico College of Agriculture came
open. I researched making compost out of
rice straw and dairy manure. I was also
able to assist Dr. Cindy Daley with the cloning and embryo transfer research
being done at the time. I decided at
that time to start working on my teaching credential. I received a credential in Agriculture at the
completion of my Student Teaching at Las Plumas High School in the fall of
2002. I taught Agriculture (Ag Biology,
Ag Life Science, Animal Science and Ornamental Horticulture) at
Lindhurst
High School for 3 and ˝ years. I
earned my Master’s Degree in Agriculture Education during the summers and
graduated in December of 2005. I started
teaching at Las Plumas High School in the fall of 2006 and thoroughly enjoy the
students. I am the advisor for Cattle,
Swine and Chickens for the Silver Dollar Fair and Butte County Fair. This requires many hours in the evenings and
weekends working with students on their projects.
When I am not busy with my school kids, I like to spend time
with my husband Sean. We met at CSU,
Chico and married in September
2000. We have three dogs:
Jes is a Black and White Border Collie that I have had since
graduating form High School. Maggie is
Jes’s daughter and is a Red and White Border Collie – both of the border
collies love to do any ranch work that is available to them.
Ruby is my husband’s super hunting dog. He often refers to him as the best present
that I ever got for him. We have Red
Angus cattle that we raise bulls out of and also run a few commercial
cows. I enjoy time spent with the cattle
and also enjoy riding my two quarter horses.
I also enjoy spending time and doing things with my family.
