Today's JH Baseball game against Arthur Christian has been canceled. There is no practice.
Next we'd like to introduce you to one of our 3rd grade teachers from 2020-21, Miss Smothers. Now she's 2nd grade teacher Mrs. Climaco:
"I attended Arcola Schools for K-12 and then got my bachelors and masters in political science from Eastern Illinois University. I went to St Mary of the Woods for my elementary teaching certification.
This is my first year in second, but I taught 3rd at Shiloh during the 2020-2021 school year. I got married this past year, and my husband is a nurse. We have one dog named Wrigley and live in Arcola.
I love reading, crafting, and trying new foods. I’m looking forward to sharing new experiences with my students. I also look forward to learning just as much, if not more, from them!"
Time to introduce another teacher that is familiar to many at Shiloh: Miss Lauren!
"I graduated from Shiloh in 2014 and then attended Parkland College for two years where I continued not only my academic but my athletic career playing basketball. After Parkland I transferred to Millikin University in Decatur where I continued playing basketball. I graduated with my BS in Early Childhood graduation and a certificate for special education as well as English as a Second Language certificate. I have been teaching for 4 years. I have a golden retriever, Oakley, who I love dearly. Teaching is my passion and I am so happy to be returning to Shiloh and look forward to what this school year has to bring."
Mrs. Evans's 6th hour 8th graders rocked the escape room activity!
