Jane Largent Trussell started working as both a teacher and as a bus driver at San Pasqual Union in 1942. She reported to work the first day of school by picking up her students. The school was a two-room building located in the San Pasqual Valley. She taught 5th through 8th grade with a grand total of 20 students. This was the start of an era for the “Little School in the Valley.” Mrs. Trussell became a strong, strict leader who believed in the importance of reading, writing, math and of course, sports. She had many roles at San Pasqual Union over the next 70 years: Teacher, Bus Driver, Custodian, Superintendent, Principal, Teacher, and in her last years she volunteered as an office assistant doing whatever was necessary for the little school.
Jane passed away peacefully on December 22, 2019 at home in Escondido at age 100. A Celebration of the Life of Jane Trussell was held January 18, 2020, at San Pasqual Union School.
