FAIRMONT â An entire professional life devoted to schooling is one thing, but 46 years devoted to one county is truly exceptional.
Randy Farley was born and raised in Mannington, and went to school for all 12 grades in Mannington. His family was well known in the school system, or at least by Mrs. Regillo, Farleyâs first-grade teacher. This same teacher at the same elementary school in Mannington taught all six of Farleyâs siblings. As the youngest, Farley was the last to pass through Regilloâs classroom.
âOur whole family had the same first-grade teacher,â Farley said. âThatâs something special.â
