In honor of School Board Appreciation Month, we’re pulling back the curtain to help you get to know the dedicated leaders shaping our district. Today, we’re featuring Abby Pipkin!
From the soccer field to the front of the classroom, Abby brings a unique perspective to our board. Check out her fun "school days" reflections below!
The School Days
• Favorite Subject: Math!
• The Plot Twist: Even though she loved Math, Abby spent her career as a Reading Teacher.
• On Growth: "I actually really disliked reading growing up. I think my struggles in school helped to make me a better teacher as an adult!"
• The Lunchroom Craving: Veggie Sticks. "I have no idea what was in those, but they were so good!"
Where to Find Her
Back in high school, Abby was constantly on the move. If she wasn't hitting a high note in the choir room, she was sprinting across the soccer field.
The Board Meeting Superpower
If Abby could have one power to get through those marathon board sessions, she’d choose Mind Reading. Why? "So I could understand what everyone is thinking!"
Hidden Talents
You might find Abby in her spare time:
• Singing and playing the piano.
• Planning her next travel adventure!
Thank you, Abby, for your heart, your history as an educator, and your dedication to our students!

For School Board Appreciation Month, we are introducing our Board Secretary, Scott Sonnenberg! From balancing the books to his days as a multi-sport athlete, Scott brings a great perspective to our district.
• The Numbers Guy: It’s no surprise Scott’s favorite subject was Math. Today, he uses those skills to manage budgets—keeping the district on track!
• Lunchroom Classic: If Scott could bring back one meal, he’s going for the old-school square pizza. (A true classic that never goes out of style!
• The Ultimate Competitor: In high school, you’d find Scott at any athletic event. He wasn't just a spectator, either—he made it to the state tennis tournament and was selected for the All-Star football team!
• Hidden Talents: Beyond the court and field, Scott was a "really good" golfer before moving to Spearman. We might have to get him back out on the links!
• Board Meeting Superpower: Scott’s pick is Mind Reading. He says it would make being a board member a very simple job for a lot of reasons—talk about getting straight to the point!
Thank you, Scott, for your service and for helping keep our district's future bright!

It’s School Board Appreciation Month, and today we’re introducing you to Board Member Rhett Renner! From the ranch to the boardroom, Rhett is all about hard work and helping our district grow.
• The Numbers Guy: Rhett’s favorite subject was Math, and he still puts those skills to work every single day in his farming and ranching business!
• The Lunchroom Legend: If he could bring back one meal for a day, he’s heading straight to the à la carte line for a Bacon Cheeseburger.
• Throwback Rhett: In high school, you would’ve found him in the football locker room, out on the golf course, or at the farm working with his show animals.
• Hidden Talent: When he’s not busy with board duties or the farm, you might find Rhett on the golf course perfecting his swing!
• Board Meeting Superpower: Rhett would choose Mind Reading! Why? To better understand what people are trying to express, especially for those who might be nervous about public speaking. He’s all about making sure everyone’s voice is truly heard!
Thank you, Rhett, for your heart and your service to our students!

The Spearman High School student council is collecting tabs for the Ronald McDonald House Charities. The box was made by Hudson Swan and decorated by Emma Gilley. The box can be found at the entrance of Spearman High School by the phone locker.
It’s School Board Appreciation Month, and today we’re getting to know our Board Vice President, Jay Tracy! From the football field to the boardroom, Jay brings a lot of heart (and a little bit of "math magic") to our district.
• The School Days: Back in the day, Jay loved Math and History. While he uses math every day in his career, his love for history shapes how he views the world today.
• The "Throwback" Craving: If Jay could bring back one school lunch for a day, it would be the legendary Rectangle Pizza. (Who wouldn't!)?
• Where to find him in HS: Jay was everywhere! You could find him on the football field, the basketball court, the track, or even the theater stage.
• Hidden Talents: When he’s not in meetings or at work, Jay is a guitar player and a dedicated collector of sports cards and memorabilia.
• Board Meeting Superpower: Jay’s dream superpower? Mind reading! While he says time travel would be the practical choice to reach the end of a long meeting, he thinks hearing everyone’s inner thoughts would be way more entertaining.
Thank you, Jay, for your dedication and leadership!

Some special surprise visitors stopped by GBE to spread holiday cheer! We wish our entire community a very happy and joyful holiday season.
Spearman HS was happy to have guest speakers, Cady Barrett and Avren Delozier - SHS Class of 2024 - address the student body today. They spoke on scholarships, internships, study abroad opportunities, and how to be a successful college student. Both students are in their second year of college - Cady at UT Austin and Avren atTexas Tech. Great job!
Congratulations to our talented High School band students who auditioned for All-Region recently! We are thrilled to share that Rico made the Symphonic Band—the highest-ranking ensemble—while our other participating students earned spots in the Concert Band.
Special recognition goes to Rico and Ayden for earning top chairs! This qualifies them both for the Area auditions in January. They’ll be competing against the best in the region for a chance to represent our school in the ATSSB State Band. We wish them the best of luck!
