Justin Carnprobst, Hockey Coach  “I think my best memories of school come from playing for the hockey team. It was so much fun getting to know everyone on the team and building friendships with them. I think that is something that you miss the most after graduating. You spend a lot of time at practice, in the locker room and competing with a good group of friends. It is something that you miss a ton after graduation. If I could go back and do it again it I think it is something that I wouldn’t take for granted again. I started coaching after I graduated and that was something that I made sure to let the kids know. Have fun and enjoy the time you have competing with everyone because it is something that happens so quickly it is hard to appreciate it when you are young.”

Amy Burkhart, Customer Service Manager “The best part of my life is having kids, I think it gives you the true understanding of unconditional love and what it’s like to put someone else before you.”

Donna Shores, Crossing Guard "If I could solve any one of the world's problems, I would solve the problem of racism because there needs to be more equality in our world."

Cathy Bowser, FACS teacher "My favorite expression is: My life is not about me; I am about life. "

The Souls of Shaler Area blog will be on hiatus until September 2017.  Thank you to all students who worked on this.  It was a learning experience and we are still perfecting the process.  If your post did not make it, we probably ran out of time for photos.  Some posts will go up in the fall.  If you don't see your post, contact me at barnerb@sasd.k12.pa.us and we can work on that in the new school year.

Shelley West, Reading Teacher "If I could write a message to my kids,  it would say you could do anything if you put your mind to it."

George Alexander, Science Teacher "One of my favorite things about teaching is getting to know all of the children I teach and see them grow up throughout the years. A message I like to pass on to the children is to always do things to your potential, give 100% in everything, and live your life the fullest."
