Our very first Future Educator Club alumni winter social was a blast! We had current SHS students, current college students, current teaching staff, AND retired educators all under one roof . There was a 55 year graduation gap between our oldest and youngest grads, and it’s so exciting to think that while teaching changes all the time, the heart of WHO teaches does not. We even hosted a contract signing for one of our graduating alumni who will be teaching for SPS next year!
