Justene O'Brien

ISD 728
Program Coordinator
Elk River

I am the adult program coordinator for ISD 728 Community Education. I started in the position one month before the pandemic happened and life and programming changed forever! I am enjoying the challenge of learning the new position, meeting other program coordinators across the state and learning how we can meet the needs of our community through our new way of planning.
