The PTA honored Eli (Doug) Panee, who was selected from numerous nominees from nearly every ev-ery school in Utah. Panee's Principal, David Smith, said Panee demands excellence ex-cellence from himself and those around him. "Doug's teaching methods and style are demanding yet student friendly," Smith explains. "He is constantly reinventing reinvent-ing himself to be a better teacher and mentor. Oak Canyon Junior High PTSA President Jackie Pettis said Panee "brings to life the world of science, making learning an exciting excit-ing adventure for every student in his class." She said each of her three children chil-dren have benefited from having had Panee as a teacher. "I have watched as they got excited about what others might think is a boring subject. They've moaned about dissecting owl pellets, but then came home that day and couldn't stop talking about it." Panee motivates students stu-dents through his Science Demo Team (SDT), where 50 students are selected to go around the state making mak-ing science presentations for elementary and junior high schools, science fairs, businesses, symposiums, etc. He motivates students by requiring that they have no tardies or zeroes on assignments in order to participate in fun projects such as the SDT.
