Spotlight on Mr. Shields

Submitted by jennifer.dunn on

Mr. Shields is one of the history teachers at SJHS. Mr. Shields majored in P.E, but he had to choose a minor so he chose the subject he disliked the least, history. When he started to teach history, it began to grow on him, and he ended up loving history, and he is glad he chose it.

His wife sadly passed away. Mr. Shields has remarried. He has four sons and three daughters. His hobbies are playing sports, watching sports, reading, dirt biking, camping, traveling, and building big fires.         

Kaylee Marshall, a student in Mr. Shields’ class, said, “He's good at teaching and he makes jokes, and the things he teaches are interesting. He's nice and he's funny.”        

According to Ryan Pexton, an eighth grade student in Mr. Shields’ class, his favorite thing about Mr. Shields’ class is that he makes learning fun, and he likes the way Mr. Shields teaches history. Ryan also added that he like to have Mr. Shields as a teacher because it is fun to learn about history with Mr. Shields. 

We are so glad to have Mr. Shields at our school and hope he decides to stay here for a long time.
