From left to right, junior Abigail Martinez, freshman Kacey Miller, freshman Jordyn Jones and senior Isabela Johnson pose for a photo at Texas Tech University where the state event for Agricultural Communications is held. Their advisor, agricultural science teacher Shannon Butler, was involved in helping them practice and motivating them for Agricultural Communications, which they placed fifth in as a team, as well as bringing many of them on board in the first place. “I am very purposeful in selecting members for this team who are already well versed in their respective practicums,” Butler said. “I provided resources for the team and formatted practices so they would not feel overwhelmed by the amount of information needing to be learned from the AP and Agricultural Communications textbooks. The girls were a little bummed initially because we had high hopes for Nationals, but were very proud of themselves and their team.”

Playing his saxophone, senior Jacob Cohen performs at one of the outdoor pep rallies. Cohen, who has been playing the saxophone since middle school, was named co-grand champion for Cedar Park’s soloist competition this year.

Biology and AP Biology teacher Adam Babich sits at his desk, concentrating on his paperwork. Babich is one of the teachers who have been affected by teacher burnout, and feels teachers are not heard enough when it comes to their struggles. “The most stressful part about teaching is not having your voice heard,” Babich said. “At a campus level, I would march off to war for my administration team; Mr Sloan, everybody, they’re great and they’re supportive. The problem comes from the higher ups; a lot of what we deal with, whether it is pay raise, or budget issues, or standards or state testing, we can give our voice, but really, nothing ever comes of it. These are legislative bodies that do a lot of the decision making and we know that, at a government level, things move at a snail’s pace. If an issue shows up, it often takes a very long time to see any results from it. For example, they’re putting together a task force to figure out why teachers are leaving. When we looked at the first task force, there was maybe two teachers on it; everyone else were superintendents, or people who had not been in the classroom for 10 years. So, as teachers, we felt like this was a slap in the face. I’m not saying that all teachers feel this way, I’m saying some of us do, and this is what we’re feeling. It’s like we’re in the trenches, we’re asking for help and we get decisions made for us by people who aren’t in the classrooms.”
