Miss Jerika Terry is one of our awesome third grade teachers! She was born and raised in Spanish Fork Utah. Her mom, dad, big sister, and little brother like to vacation in California in the Bay area or at Disney Land. Hawaii was fun, and Europe is next on her list. She loves to read ... Gone with the Wind and The Hiding Place are some of her favorite books.
Reading, running, cooking, and watching movies are some of her favorite pastimes. Jerika also loves Dr. Pepper, chips and salsa, brownies, pasta, and tacos.
The 4th grade students at Spanish Oaks have been sorted into their houses: Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin. Quidditch has begun! Tri-Wizard tournaments and pensive challenges are ahead. But, most of all ... the 4th graders are reading, reading, READING!!!
Spanish Oaks Elementary's very own Mrs. Brown was honored with Nebo School District's PEAK (Positive Energy and Kindness) Award on December 11, 2013 at the December Board Meeting.
In her nomination, Mrs. DeAnn Carter said, “Kali has only been our principal for a short time, but every situation that she has had to deal with (and there have been some difficult ones already), she has turned it into a positive learning situation. To quote a student after he came out of her office, ‘That's a nice principal’.”
From the Polar Express to reindeer ... gingerbread houses, games and toys, Santa still took time out of his very busy schedule to visit all the GOOD boys and girls at Spanish Oaks!
