Hillcrest’s Long is UHSAA 2012 Theater Teacher of the Year

Students in Josh Long’s stage productions are regularly honored with standing ovations. This time, the applause is for him.

Long, the drama teacher at Hillcrest High School, has been selected as the recipient of the Utah High School Activities Association’s 2012 Distinguished Service Award for Theater Teacher of the Year. The UHSAA accepts nominations from all regions in the state and then selects the top recipient for the award in each category. Long was nominated by Principal Sue Malone and confirmed by the Region 7 Board of Managers as their nomination to the UHSAA for this prestigious honor.
 
Long has been one of the driving forces behind Hillcrest’s powerhouse theater program. Rare are the high school programs that can successful produce, season after season, multiple Broadway musicals, classic American plays and championship Shakespeare Teams.

Long will be honored at a Jan. 16, 2013 awards luncheon at the Willow Creek Country Club.

Lucie Chamberlain

Alta View Elementary

If a movie about super teachers were ever made, Lucie Chamberlain would be a prime candidate for a leading role. Fortunately for her kindergarten students at Alta View Elementary, she already thrives in a supporting role for them. Parents thank her for being a “super teacher.” She is also described as an “amazing colleague.” Whether students need help in the classroom or from home while sick, Lucie goes above and beyond to help them learn, overcome fears, and feel important and cared for. Lucie is the reason a number of kids went from hating school to loving it, according to parents. The way she exudes patience, sweetness, positive energy, and love for her students with special needs melts is appreciated and admired. One parent noted: “Both my kids wish she could be their teacher forever.” Another added:  “She treats every student like their learning and their feelings are her priority.” Super teacher, indeed!
