 What are you looking forward to?


 I’m excited to see how students perform in upcoming district and state competitions. Curious to see how much more growth students will continue have within the classroom. Look forward to becoming more involved within the community and hopefully secure a job prior to graduation.

What’s your favorite part of student teaching?

My favorite part of student teaching is getting to know my students. Each of them come from different backgrounds and are interested in so many different things. It is fun to recognize what their likes and dislikes are and use that when teaching them material in class.

What has been the highlight of your student teaching experience?

So far the highlight of student teaching has really just been being able to interact with and getting to know the students. There are a lot of good students here at my cooperating site. Its a great experience to finally be "the teacher", students ask to questions, and you get to provide them with the knowledge and learning they need!

Welding 2 is my favorite class because I have the opportunity to work one on one with students to help them better understand welding.

Wind and rain lashed around us, but the castle remained still, unmoving, as if part of the earth itself.   “For those who are not faint-hearted” Dr. Ahmadzadeh called, “There is a striking view on the other side.” He pointed to a narrow, water bogged trail weaving around the sharply slanted hill. The ground had withstood hours of pouring rain, and was now saturated and unstable, shifting precariously under our feet. Undaunted, all eight students quickly fell in step behind him. We treaded through the long grass, stepping o

Student Spotlight: Sydney Anderson

Sydney Anderson is a senior studying ASCL in Twin Falls. Growing up in Nampa, Anderson was involved in agriculture in various ways. Her parents enrolled her in 4-H after getting a horse for her older sister and her to share; she continued to do 4-H for 12 years. Anderson got involved in the National FFA Organization because of her grandfather, who was President of the North Miami Chapter in Florida at the time. Her passion for leadership, serving others, and advocating for agriculture grew from then on.  “I chose to study ASCL because of the luxury of distance learning while having the ability to experience all the possible opportunities in the Magic Valley,” Anderson says.

Anderson loves public speaking and coordinating events, so studying ASCL has helped her continue to learn about and keep an interest in a future career relating to these passions.  Anderson served as a
