I grew up in Boulder, Montana, and attended Boulder Public Schools from K-12.  I graduated from JHS in 1989.  I received my bachelor's degree from Western Montana College (UM-Western) with a master's in biology and a history minor.  My first year of teaching was in Wolf Point, Montana, where I taught life science and earth science.  I also coached football and junior high basketball.

I started teaching at Jefferson High (go panthers) in 1996.  I initially taught both history and science at Jefferson High School, but currently, I am teaching all life science courses.  I have also coached both football and basketball at Jefferson High in previous years.

For clubs,I advise the National Honor Society and the Science Olympiad team.

Hi, I'm Mike Robbins

I am the Wood shop and Precision machining teacher here at JHS. I graduated from Montana State University in 2015 with a bachelors in Industrial Technology Education. I completed my student teaching at Jefferson high school that year, and joined the Panther family as the Woods teacher the following.

Since my beginning at JHS I have focused on creating an up to date and safe working environment. The addition of multiple new computer numerically controlled (CNC) machines; as well as replacing old equipment with new more advanced technology creates a safe, unique and in-depth experience with the trades and technology. 

My classes now include: 

Workplace Safety - This is the first prerequisite for other shop classes and required for all freshman to take. It covers general shop safety, measurements, and power tool safety.

Woods 1 - This 1 semester elective is available for grades 10-12. We develop and understanding of basic tree anatomy and grain structure, before jumping right into 1 of the 3 projects we will do that semester. With lots of hands on work and tool time, this class is engaging, fun, and full of opportunity for creativity.

 

'Profe Schultz' - as the whole school calls her - was Spanish and English as a Second Language at Green Mountain Union High School/Middle School in Chester Vermont prior to joining the faculty of JHS in October 2019.  Doubly-endorsed in K-12 Spanish and now 7-12 ELA, she teaches all the Spanish courses and one or two English classes as assigned.

Wendy and her husband Josey began their married life in Canyon Creek MT in 1992; their daughter and son were born at St. Peter's Hospital in 1998 and 2004 respectively.  They then moved to live and work in Costa Rica for 7 years, where they farmed cacao, learned to make artisanal dark chocolate, Josey continued timber framing from their finca, and Wendy was hired by the Ministry of Education to be a regional trainer of public school English teachers in methodology and technique of second language teaching.  This led to being recommended to the faculty of the English department of the Universidad de Costa Rica, where she taught Linguistics to English majors and Conversational English for Ecotourism majors.

Looking forward to leading the first of biannual trips to my beloved Costa Rica days after the last day of school 2023: May 29-June 6th.  See the school website for more details.  You do not have to be a spanish student to go on the trip, at least not this year!!!  Open enrollment and all $$$ through EF Tours!
