This year, the Apache County Fair recognized teachers from each of the schools in the county. Committee members asked each district to select a teacher to represent their schools to receive this honor, which was announced at the opening ceremony of the fair.

At SJHS, we asked our faculty and staff to nominate their colleagues for this recognition, from which we selected one recipient. We are pleased to announce that Mrs. Patti Johnson was selected as the teacher to be honored from St. Johns High School!

Here are some of the words written by Mrs. Johnson's colleagues and administrators:

"This is Patti’s fourth year teaching art courses at St. Johns High School. Patti has a unique ability to make art accessible, interesting, challenging, and fun for every student. Her magnetic personality and great sense of humor make her classroom a place where students feel comfortable expressing themselves. She challenges her students to create beautiful and meaningful works of art, many of which are regularly displayed throughout the school and community. Her passion for art and her students is evident in everything she does."

Mrs. Johnson spent hours the day prior to the fair, submitting and arranging over 50 pieces of student artwork this year, many of which earned ribbons!

Congratulations, Mrs. Johnson! We are lucky to have you at SJHS!

Congratulations, Regina Hitchcock, on being selected as Apache County Farm Bureau Ag Educator of the Year! Mrs. Hitchcock teaches multiple levels of AgriScience at St. Johns High School, along with several levels of Culinary, as well as sponsors both FFA and FCCLA, the Career & Technical Student Organizations for each program. We are blessed to have Mrs. Hitchcock leading the next generation of farmers in Apache County!

Just a reminder..............

Freshmen and Seniors worked in groups to identify their "student diseases" (i.e. procrastinitis, high grades fever, the whatever virus, etc.). They are identifying their triggers, why they are problems for school and their lives outside of school, and how to "cure" themselves. They are researching how to help themselves overcome these common issues. Later this week they will be setting goals and creating a calendar to keep track of their steps towards success. They will be checking back in with Mrs. Lindsey throughout the year to show their progress.
