TEACHERS OF THE MONTH
CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. PATTI HUTCHISON
MARCH TEACHER OF THE MONTH
marchtom

Mrs. Hutchison's philosophy of Teaching: On a personal level, first and foremost she cares about her students and she likes them! This is the foundation of everything in education. Therefore she says "good morning" or "hello" to students when they walk in the door so they will know that she is approachable.  Mostly she tries to make the media center a welcoming place where students and faculty are supported! And she loves to laugh!
CONGRATULATIONS TO MRS. DEBORAH MARTINA
APRIL TEACHER OF THE MONTH  
apriltom
Mrs. Martina's philosophy of Teaching: With mathematics there are so many formulas and methods to find the answers and many times students just want to memorize because this is what they have always done to pass an assessment without the knowledge of the origins of the formula. I try to help them by not giving the formulas, but have them discover the origins of the formula. Memorization does not work... but knowledge of "the why" helps them to devise the formula when they need the information.
AFTER-SCHOOL TUTORING

Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, teachers, neighbors, clergy and friends may send your Senior student a special letter of congratulations on his or her upcoming graduation in May 2016. We will carefully keep these cards and letters for each student and distribute them after the Senior Breakfast on Wednesday, May 25, 2016. Every Senior will receive a large RED ENVELOPE containing these messages and well wishes. The letters and cards will be kept confidential until they are given to the students at the breakfast.
