Art City Parent and PTA Commissioner honored as one of Nebo District's Teacher of the Year


Eric Ferrin was recently honored as a Teacher of the Year for Nebo School District 2008-2009. He currently works at Spanish Fork Jr. High and also serves as the Yearbook Commissioner for Art City Elementary.

Spanish Fork Jr. High Principal John Degraffenried said, “Eric has accepted numerous school assignments that have made a positive effect on the school and with our students. He lends his computer skills to nearly every teacher in the building and makes the time to do this no matter how busy he is. He makes recommendations for new technology and then trains teachers in the best ways to integrate the technology into the classroom. In the classroom Eric is constantly looking for new methods to improve his teaching and facilitate student learning. If a student does not understand math concepts he is able to modify his approach, implementing best practices to help each student succeed.”

Art City Elementary has benefited greatly because of Eric's knowledge of the tech world! Thanks Eric and Congratulations!
