The Washington County School District board set aside time on April 14, 2025, to hear school highlights: Crimson View Elementary and Enterprise High School principals summarized accomplishments, Pine View High Air Force JROTC was recognized for a perfect inspection score, and individual teachers received awards.

Anthony Horrocks, principal at Crimson View Elementary, described efforts to improve attendance, school climate and academic growth. Horrocks said a faculty survey found strong feelings of belonging and that the school was recently redesignated “platinum” as a STEM school. He told the board Crimson View’s community raised more than $37,000 through an egg‑drop engineering fundraiser to support school programs and said the school’s SEP conferences enjoyed about 96% parent attendance this year. Horrocks said, “Crimson View is a great place for all to be. Our students are thriving.”

Calvin Holt, principal at Enterprise High School, described how girls’ wrestling has created new pathways for students — especially Hispanic students — to connect with school and pursue post‑secondary opportunities. Holt noted several state wrestling champions in recent years and said the program has helped some students earn scholarships and college opportunities.

Pine View High Air Force Junior ROTC received special recognition: district speakers said the unit earned a perfect score of 100 on a recent inspection, a distinction held by only a handful of units worldwide. Colonel Brown (instructor) praised cadet leadership and described a mission brief and mass formation that impressed inspectors. The board heard that multiple recent cadets have received appointments or full‑ride ROTC scholarships; a cadet who addressed the board described leadership, trip planning and aeronautics learning opportunities.

Teachers and community volunteers were also honored. Courtney Giles (classroom teacher) was recognized with a statewide arts‑education award, and Joanne Platt of Enterprise High School received local recognition for more than 40 years of teaching and mentoring. The board noted an upcoming awards banquet on May 14 where more than 20 awards will be presented.

The board thanked the principals, cadets and honored teachers for their work.
