Randy Reeter has been a longtime resident and dedicated supporter of the Mount Pulaski community. A lifelong sports fan and former IHSA referee, Randy has spent countless hours supporting local students by attending athletic events and cheering on the young people of our community. In retirement, Randy has taken his commitment to Mount Pulaski students even further by becoming a much-needed substitute teacher in both schools within the district. His willingness to step into the classroom, support teachers, and provide consistency for students demonstrates an extraordinary commitment to the success of our schools. Randy has become a true staple of the district—not only in the stands, but also in the classroom. His continued service, reliability, and genuine investment in students exemplify what it means to engage with and give back to the Mount Pulaski community. Congratulations to Randy!
