​We are celebrating Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week! We are extremely fortunate to have such amazing staff members serving our students in Florence! At Siuslaw High School, one of our teachers, Trisha Holden, honored two of our staff members with a written tribute. Below is what she shared about Siuslaw West staff members Terri Mason and Kate Gibson. "Ms. Mason and Ms. Kate are an AMAZING team over at Siuslaw West! Ms. Mason makes my role as an independent studies/credit recovery teacher so much easier because she keeps a constantly updated running tally of students' progress in each of their online classes. This allows me to have the time in my classroom to focus on and engage in helping students with their studies. It's a big deal! Not only do they look out for all the students who are working on their credit recovery here on the main campus, but they are creating a space at Siuslaw West where students feel safe, welcome, wanted, and motivated. They have consistent rules and high expectations, and they cheer, nurture, and tutor each student toward their goal of diploma or GED completion. They definitely embody all aspects of Siuslaw PRIDE! Ms. Mason and Ms. Kate absolutely ROCK!" ​To our staff we say: Thank you! You are an inspiration! You are appreciated! You make a huge impact! You truly care about students! We are fortunate to have you!
