🚨 🏀Important Meeting for Parents of JH Lynxette Basketball Team🏀🚨
Don't miss the mandatory parent meeting for JH Lynxette basketball. Join us at the Varsity Gym on Tuesday, October 17th at 5:30 pm.
October is National Principal’s Month. This month-long celebration is a time to recognize and thank our hard-working principals on each campus of Spearman Independent School District. We are fortunate to have outstanding men and women lead the campuses.
Karina Baca is the assistant principal at Spearman Junior High. This is her second year as the assistant principal. One of her proud accomplishments is, “Surviving my first year as the Junior High assistant principal. It takes a lot to run a school, but I love my job and the people I work with,” smiled Baca.
Baca shares what a good day looks like for her, “A good day at school is seeing kids enter those doors with a smile and ready to start the day.”
A fun fact about Baca is she and her husband own Tacos Los Socios. They have had this business for a few years here in Spearman.
Baca is inspired by her family. “My family inspires me,: they inspire me to set goals for myself and to pursue those goals. I want them to know that everything is possible when you work hard and never give up.”
Keep up the amazing job you are doing, Mrs. Baca!
The high school food science class had a sensory taste test where they had to taste several foods unfamiliar to them and determine the texture, smell, taste, and feel. Some foods were not favorites!

October is National Principal’s Month. This month-long celebration is a time to recognize and thank our hard-working principals on each campus of Spearman Independent School District. We are fortunate to have outstanding men and women lead the campuses.
Craig Black is the principal at Spearman Junior High. A good day at school for Black is when everyone is there. “100% attendance, and the students engaged in their classes and attempting to do their absolute best is what makes for a good day at school,’ said Black.
“Our students deserve the best that we can offer. I want school to be the most enjoyable experience it can be while at the same time developing academically and socially. It is my responsibility to do my best to make that happen,” added Black.
He can still remember the positive impact of his kindergarten teacher. “I still have memories of my first teacher, Mrs. McClean for kindergarten. She made school so much fun for me. I remember one of my favorite things to do was writing in my Big Chief Tablet (I may have just aged myself on that one!),” laughed Black.
Thank you for making school fun for the students at SJH and impacting their lives.
