At each Party With a Purpose, a member of the Westfall community is honored for their service to the community. This year’s honored guest is Jackie Eitel.
Jackie Eitel dedicated 35 and a half years to the profession of teaching, serving as an educator in the Westfall Local School District. After graduating from Westfall High School in 1984, she earned her teaching degree from Ohio University. Jackie returned to her alma mater to serve as a substitute throughout the district in the winter of 1989. In the fall of 1991, she began teaching third grade at Darby Elementary until transferring to Jackson Elementary in 1995. While earning a Master’s degree from Ashland University, she became a gifted intervention specialist for the Discovery Program. Having served gifted students for the majority of her career at Westfall Elementary, Mrs. Eitel strived to instill lifelong learning and enrichment opportunities to countless students. Throughout her tenure, she was also a Title One reading intervention specialist, earned her Master Teacher designation from the Ohio Department of Education, was awarded Teacher of the Year in 2006 from the Ohio Association for Gifted Children, was the chairperson of the Local Professional Development Committee, served on many professional committees, educational organizations, and held multiple leadership roles within the district and community. One of which was the Westfall Education Foundation where she served as secretary for several years and also became one of the three founding board members of the Field of Dreams Committee. After returning to the regular classroom in 2018, she commenced her teaching career working with fourth grade students through May of 2024. Known for her profound impact, Mrs. Eitel has not only imparted educational knowledge, but also invaluable life lessons in a kind, loving, and safe environment.
