| Kasen Maughan with his older sister. | 184.86 KB |
On Sunday, February 3, a little boy named Kasen Tim Maughan came into this world. His mom may be someone you have seen around the junior high. You guessed it, Mrs. Maughan, a dance and an English teacher at SJHS, is now a mom of two. But while she is home to take care of her new baby, we have a great long-term sub filling in for her at SJHS. According to Emo Apaui, a ninth grader and a TA for Mrs. Maughan, Ms. Erickson is amazing. Ms. Erickson will be here until spring break. You might see her smiling face in the halls.
Students agree that Ms. Erickson is super nice and kind. Kimberlyn Hicken, a ninth grader at SJHS, said, “I love her! She teaches at the perfect pace, and she makes it fun.” Mrs. Erickson said, “The classes are going well.”
While school continues at SJHS, Mrs. Maughan and her new baby get to relax a little. They came home from the hospital on Tuesday, February the fifth. Kasen Maughan was a week early. He weighed six pounds fifteen ounces and was 18 inches long. Mrs. Maughan said, “We're both doing great.” Lots of students are very happy for Mrs. Maughan. Kimberlyn Hicken said, “Little kids change lives.” Kimberlyn Hicken also said that he’s a real cutie. If you want to see some more pictures of Kasen, there are some pictures on the whiteboard in Mrs. Maughan’s room.
Teaching may not for everyone, but Ms. Erickson said, “I enjoy substitute teaching, so I was excited to have a long-term job.” Ms. Erickson and Mrs. Maughan are two different people but they both share a strong desire for student education.
We hope Mrs. Maughan enjoys her little baby, and we can't wait to see her again.
