A prospector is a person who digs for minerals of value . A prospector often uses a pickaxe, a tool that is used to break apart rock to find the valuable minerals inside. This podcast is about doing just that, as a leader and a person, mining for human potential. As a high school principal, I do this everyday. As educators, we all do this everyday. We will discuss books on leadership, inspirational stories, educational issues, and together discover how to mine our own human potential.

    Part 2 - The State of Our School - The Arts and Student Activities

    Welcome to our second installment of the State of Our School.   Today, we focus on The Arts and Student Activities.  This presentation will be about concrete examples of the incredible things that we have done here in our school and community during the 21 - 22 school year.  The time has come to change the narrative surrounding Apache Junction High School and to set the record straight on the outstanding abilities and talents of our students and our staff.   I think that the best way to do this is to focus on the areas of Academics,the Arts and Student Activities; Athletics, Facilities and Curriculum,  and Students, Staff, and Faculty Honors and Awards, and our plans moving forward to continue to demonstrate improvement and provide students with a world-class educational experience.   We will present this information in a series of weekly video installments throughout the summer.
