EUGENE IHS STAFF 2010-2011<br />
Good-<strong>by</strong>e and Good Luck!<br />
Several teachers left <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS last year, and we will miss them all.<br />
Jennifer Diallo will be sorely missed as a French Immersion and Global Geography teacher. Ms. Diallo’s creativity and<br />
passion for her work, her project-centered approach to classes, her global vision, and support of students are aspects to her<br />
teaching we deeply admire.<br />
Gretchen Lieberman has been teaching 9 th grade Cultural Aesthetics and worked with students as our Learning Support<br />
Specialist—her efforts were tireless in supporting many students in a rigorous curriculum. Ms. Lieberman’s unique internationally-focused<br />
background made her a natural fit in <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS.<br />
Jim Holm taught in <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS for nine years prior to his retirement. Mr. Holm taught the intricacies of IB Economics,<br />
and is famous for his “Ever Wonder Why?” anecdotes. His passion and dedication to his students is legendary, but new<br />
adventures beckon, beginning with a trip to Finland.<br />
Jesse Scott has taught 10 th grade Global History and Values and Beliefs in <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS for the past several years. Mr.<br />
Scott is an inspiring and encouraging teacher, again with unique ties to the global community. Mr. Scott will be teaching<br />
at Kennedy Middle <strong>School</strong>.<br />
Both colleagues and students will miss these teachers tremendously, and we thank them for their commitment, energy and<br />
vision for <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS.<br />

EUGENE IHS FACTOID #8:<br />
The 8 th <strong>Annual</strong> <strong>Eugene</strong> IHS Film Festival was held on January 13, 2010 at Churchill<br />
High <strong>School</strong>. The contest was open to all 4J high school students. Film submissions<br />
were to be approximately 8 minutes in length, with a PG rating. The submission fee<br />
was $5. The 1 st and 2 nd place winners won cash prizes and the rest received recognition.<br />
This year, first place went to Churchill students Jacob Anderson, Evan Andreason, Tyler Ligon, Thomas<br />
LoSciuto, Paul Willey, and Jeremy Henninger-Jiang for the production of Sharing Is Caring.<br />
We are proud to be able to offer this creative outlet to our talented students and are always amazed at the<br />
quality of their work.<br />
