BUCKHANNON-UPSHUR AREA EVENTS & NEWS ANOTHER ARRESTED IN B-U HIGH SCHOOL BULLYING INCIDENTS

Helsley faces two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor after she allegedly solicited two female juveniles on Dec. 4th and offered money to commit battery on another female student at Buckhannon-Upshur High School over an issue with her daughter.Now an 18 year old man, Jeffrey Andrew Saltis of Buckhannon has been arrested after allegedly soliciting a juvenile to commit battery against another student at Buckhannon-Upshur High School! Saltis is charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor in regard to allegedly offering an undisclosed sum of money to a juvenile to commit the battery. Saltis was arraigned in Upshur County Magistrate Court and is free on $1,000 bond. We'll post details as they become available. In the case of Helsley, the targeted female juvenile had been assaulted by the time of her arrest by one of the females that she had allegedly solicited. The investigation continues in both cases and additional charges may be filed.

As many of you know, I was married prior to our 1982 graduation day. The fall of 82 I did enter WVWC as planned, but left WVWC and my thoughts of being an accountant behind in the spring of 1983. My daughter Andrea was born in June of 1983 and I enjoyed being a stay at home mom for a while. I achieved my insurance licensing during that time and eventually worked as an insurance agent for Linger, Sexton, & Wyatt / Hathaway Associates. When I returned to college, I opted to pursue a degree in education at Glenville State College. While there I earned the Congressional Teacher Scholarship and the Virginia West Alumni Association English Award. The majority of my teaching career was in Lewis County Schools where I worked as an English / Language Arts instructor at Weston Junior High ( '87), Walkersville School (88-90), and Lewis County High School '93-'03). I was also an adult education instructor (90-93), Lewis County's literacy facilitator, the JOBS program peer trainer, and an assessment coordinator for DHHR. I completed my MA in Reading at WVU in 1995, and additional certification in educational leadership from Salem International University in 2002. I accepted an administrative position with Upshur County Schools in the fall of 2003, and served as Associate Principal/Dean of Curriculum and Instruction at BUHS from 2003 - 2006. Prior to that I had also worked part-time as a real estate agent and co-created Home Land Realty, LLC during that time. In 2006 I resigned from my school position and worked full-time in real estate (the market was good then). I moved to Huntington for personal reasons and accepted a teaching position at Beverly Hills Middle School in 2007, then returned to the area in 2008. I served as a Title I Reading Specialist at North Elementary in Randolph County for a year, then a similar position at Rock Cave Elementary. In 2010 I was hired as a reading specialist at B-U Middle School, where I still teach.

During that time I also enjoyed Civil Air Patrol activities which helped me acquire my pilot's license and encouraged me to pursue a career that involves communications, computers, & various types of electronics devices which I've always enjoyed. After graduating from Wesleyan in 1981, I became Director of Computer Services at D&E College, then Project Manager for a contract with NIOSH (National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health) in Morgantown before moving in 1988 to Huntsville, Alabama to support Department of Defense (DoD) related efforts as a contractor.
