Unit 4 losing ultimate go-to person

CHAMPAIGN – The first voice many area teachers hear in the morning is that of Pat Grimsey on the telephone.

Grimsey is at her desk and ready to start dialing by 6 a.m. every day. She finds substitute teachers, teachers' aides and clerks for the Champaign school district. Many refer to Grimsey as their wake-up call.
