CU Athletics Has Been Major Influence For Terrell In Education Career

BOULDER — Former Colorado basketball player Johnny Terrell has enjoyed a long and productive career in education.

Recently promoted to Assistant Superintendent of Student Services in the St. Vrain Valley School District, he has worked as a coach, teacher, principal and administrator in Colorado schools for the last 25 years. It is a career path he has traveled with great passion and enthusiasm and one in which he has had the opportunity to "give back" to every community in which he lived.

It is also a road that began with a relatively simple question way back in 1993, just after he had wrapped up his hoops career and was putting the finishing touches on his CU bachelor's degree.
