Mrs. Betty Ann Rember has announced her retirement as principal at Panguitch High School. After 11 years as Principal at Panguitch Mrs. Rember has retired. She instilled in the students the need for an education in 2000, (most of the graduate student said they were going to join the work force). She built it into the number 1 1-A academic school in the State, two years in a row and in the top 1100 schools in the Country. She assembled a core of excellent teachers that bought into her hard work efforts. The problem with public schools is that they have to teach to the masses and there isn't anywhere for the top students to grow. Janice Hatch purposed to all of the schools in he County, the AP Advanced Prep classes. Mrs. Rember was the only Principal that bought into the program and was successful getting teachers to give up their summer to learn how to teach college classes. These classes counted for high school credit as well as college. They differ from Ed Net classes that only go towards college credits and can not be taken during school hours. She got grants for an afternoon class for those students that had fallen behind, and for those students that really wanted to learn, she would tutor them to help them catch up. In her 10 to 12 hour day she was the Curriculum Director, Professional Development Director, Sexual Harassment Hearing Officer, Homeland Security Officer, Lane Change Committee Chair, GPASS Evaluator, Mentor to new Principals, Sec/ Treasure for Region XX and Utah High School Activities Executive Committee Representative. During her 11 years at Panguitch High they won 27 State Championships, including those in Debate and Drama. Panguitch was the SLC Tribune 1-A State Champion School for five years. Betty Ann's legacy will live on for many years, with the teachers she has put in place that will carry on her tradition of excellence. I can never repay Mrs. Rember and her staff for the Education she has provided for my grand daughter and all the students that now have a better opportunity to succeed in life. Thank You Betty Ann, and God bless you and your family, I got to meet a real life Angel. Mack 0.

The forest is seeking public comment on the proposal. "This project will restore healthy forest conditions and scenic integrity to a popularly used area on the Dixie National Forest," said Rob MacWhorter, Dixie National Forest Supervisor. "Through various treatments we hope to provide for a world-class recreation experience in this area." This project will restore spruce forests by salvaging dead and dying trees mainly south of the lake. Salvaging the dead and dying trees will assist in a natural progression from a landscape dominated by dead trees to a landscape of live green vegetation, principally aspen, Engelmann spruce, and Douglas-fir. The proposed action includes work in unhealthy aspen stands to promote the regeneration of new aspen shoots. Finally, the project proposes to establish Defensible Fire Space around the recreation residences southwest of the lake. The vegetation work is intended to improve the scenic and recreation experience in the area. Dead trees in recreation sites and along high use trails will be removed. A new, additional trailhead and parking on the east side of the lake will improve recreation convenience. The forest is currently analyzing the proposed project and hopes to release a decision by September 30, 2011. The public is invited to comment on the project during a 30 day comment period from July 25 until Aug 24. Comments should be submitted to the Responsible Official: Robert MacWhorter, Forest Supervisor, Dixie National Forest, Attn: Veronica Magnuson, 1789 N. Wedgewood Lane, Cedar City, Utah 84721. Comments can be mailed or hand delivered between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. Electronic comments can be submitted (rich text format .rtf or Word .doc) to comments-intermtndixie@fs.fed.us . If the forest decides to approve the proposed action, then implementation would not likely occur until at least 2013. During implementation, there could be some short-term inconveniences to visitors in the area as workers implement the project. For more information, contact Patrick Moore at (435) 865-3221.
