With a membership of 30 students, one could say that more than 50 percent of the student body belongs to the FFAI Darin Jenkins is the faculty advisor for the club and he assists the members as they participate in livestock projects and judging, and community and school service projects. As a traditional service project, members of the FFA take care of the general grounds keeping needs at their school. They assist the custodian throughout the spring and summer months with weeding, mowing, watering, and planting. This is no small responsibility, but the club does a great job in maintaining nice grounds for their school, said Park. Because Tabiona High is such a small school, the students benefit from a personal relationship with the teachers and administrators. Faculty members are generally aware of how each student is progressing and they are on hand to assist when a student needs extra help. One way that needs, are being met is through the extended hours that the school library has established. Every Wednesday, the library stays open until 8 p.m. Students and members of the community have access to the computers for personal and scholastic research projects during these extended hours. This seems to be a service that is appreciated and utilized by a growing number of people. There's an old saying that goes like this: Bigger is not always better. Students at Tabiona High would probably agree that this is true in regard to their school. Although Tabiona High may be a small school, they are doing big things in a big wayl Good Luck Candidates! 300 N.. Roosevelt Uintah Basin Medical Clinic 2 10W. 300 N.( Roosevelt Call Therena Morrill Tabiona High may be a small school as far as schools go, but some students think that attending a high school that has only 54 students in 9th through 12th grades provides a great opportunity to be involved in everything from basketball to cheerleading. The six teachers, at Tabiona High are also uniquely involved in teaching a wide variety of subjects on a daily basis, which eliminates the problem of boredom on the job. And the fact that there is only one club at the school greatly simplifies the process of decision-makin- g in regard to which club to joinl According to Robert Park, principal at Tabiona High, Everyone is involved in everything. This year there are six female students who were cheerleaders, members of the drill team, and onf the basketball team at the same time I This level of involvement requires a tremendous effort on the part of the students and their families. For example, these six young ladies attended basketball practice at 6 a.m., cheerieading practice immediately after school, and drill team practice in the evenings. But if a student at Tabiona High has a desire to participate in any given activity, the opportunity is available. The students aren't the only ones who are highly involved. The faculty members at Tabiona High, though few in number, are responsible for teaching all of the state core curriculum requirements. This means that a single teacher never teaches the same subject twice during a day. In order to teach a different subject every class period, teachers must spend a lot of time preparing. In addition to the responsibility of preparing for five or six classes each day, teachers also must maintain their state endorsements and By Janae is our Music Sterling scholar.
