Joy Critchfield
Joy Critchfield grew up exploring forests and streams along the Oregon coastline. Her mother says Joy has been curious since the day she was born. Adopting the role of teacher early, she and her big sister practiced instructing their five younger siblings. First called as a Primary teacher at age 16, her most recent Primary position was teaching a CTR class where the students spoke three different languages at the Qingdao Branch in China. Between these, she has taught every Primary course. Mrs. Critchfield and her husband are the parents of four children, and have four beautiful granddaughters. Re-enrolling in university the same day the youngest child left for the mission field, Mrs. Critchfield earned certifications in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education and Middle School Education (K-8) and Special Education (K-12). While Mrs. Critchfield completed an internship teaching second grade at an international elementary school overseas, the family was able to keep in touch online. Learning all life long, she continues to be curious about distance education as she works on a Master's Degree in Learning and Technology. She is excited to share her love of the restored gospel with students everywhere!
