A message from the President,

It’s all about fun events for the CWMP kids this October!

The HERricane 5K Glam Run is almost here and the community

support has been incredible! From all the sponsors to the PHUHS

teachers, students, parents and administrators who signed up to run

and volunteer, we are overwhelmed and thankful! Come cheer on

over 300 runners, 75 volunteers and our 25 sponsors on October 4th,

7am at Pop Stansell Park.

Calling for Volunteers!

We are looking for parent volunteers to chaperone the 10th grade

field trip to Morton Plant Mease. We need 4 parents each Oct 22nd

and 23rd, 8am-11:30am. Contact [email protected] if you

can help. This field trip cannot happen without the parent chaper-

ones.

The Junior Scrubs Ceremony is also this month and we need dessert

and drink donations! If you wish to donate, please contact

[email protected] for a list of needed items.

Don’t forget Honor Roll Donut Day is Oct 31st. Any CWMP student

that made Honor Roll for the grading period will get a Donut Day

Ticket in one of their medical classes to redeem for a free donut.

Let’s beat last year’s honor roll record of 70% for the first grading

period!

We can’t forget to thank our newest CWMP sponsors: CEA Market-

ing and H&R Block at Boot Ranch. We appreciate your support!

The HOSA District Conference was held at the Rusty Pelican in Tampa. The conference was a lottery for the Health Science 1 and Biomedical students. All the students whose names were drawn were from Health Science 1.

Congratulations Health Science 1 for placing 2nd in the Creative Problem Solving Competition.

From Left to Right: Sarah Devine, Sophia Ershova, Lisa Bemis, Nathan Weaver, Miki Hodges & Sarah Billris

Our science teacher, Kelly Webb, had the opportunity to select free microscopes courtesy of the National Forensic Science Technology Center in Largo. Palm Harbor University received over $13K worth of equipment which is now being used in our Biomedical Program. Science instructors from five Pinellas and Hillsborough county high schools and colleges visited the NFSTC laboratory last May to pick out supplies and equipment. NFSTC generously made items that it no longer needed available to local science instructors

Ms. Jackson has been teaching English at Palm Harbor University for thirteen years. Ms. Jackson is energetic and very personable. She is nice, easy going and good natured. Her students love her. Ms. Jackson grew up in Pinellas County in Belleair. She went to CCC high school and got her teaching degree from Florida State University—Go Noles! She became a teacher to share her love of reading and literature. She began her teaching career at Palm Harbor University straight out of college.

Her favorite part of teaching is having the chance to build relationships with her wonderful students. She en-joys listening to her students telling her stories. Her favorite part of teaching is the poetry and creative writing segment. On the last day of school, after watching the movie Dead Poet Society, her students stood on chairs and said “Oh Jackson, my Jackson” just like in the movie. That is a memory she will treasure.

Her advice to her students is for them to do what makes them happy. She admires her students optimistic nature and their ability to find joy in small things.

Ms. Jackson enjoys reading a lot! She enjoys going to the beach, spending time with her boyfriend, her dog Zeus and her cat Tiki. She also enjoys spending time with family. Her hobbies are yoga and painting. Her favorite sport teams are the Florida State Seminoles, the Bucs and the Cleveland Browns. Beach Music by Pat Conroy is her favorite book. E and E Stakeout Grill in Belleair Bluffs is her favorite restaurant and she loves sushi. Her favorite vacation spots are Siesta Key and New Zealand.
