Guess Who’s Back…

Back in action, Mr. Salvitti made a return to fulfill new opportunities and goals. Students and staff welcomed him. 

“The other teachers and staff have made me feel at home since my first day back this year, and of course the students here at JBHS are great. It’s cool to see how students that I had in middle school have grown up and matured into young adults ready to take on the world when they graduate,” Salvitti said. 

He teaches complex classes like 3D Design, Programming, Digital Electronics, and Robotics. New advancements in technology allowed Mr. Salvitti to use CNC routers, electronic microcontrollers, and laser engravers.

“I want to learn more about newer technologies that weren’t as prevalent or accessable when I went to college, like how to use Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of Things, and machine learning.  Then I want to offer an elective to teach students about these new technologies and see what kinds of awesome projects we can build,” Salvitti said. 

Being a class advisor with Mrs. Quinby, with goals to make the class of 2027 the best class that has ever attended JBHS,” Mr. Salvitti encourages students to take his classes.

 “Study Halls are boring. Get out and learn something new,” Salvitti said.

Natalea Thurston, Staff Writer
Written by Karli Gordon Natalea Thurston is a Junior at James Buchanan High School. She is a part of the Varsity soccer team and has just joined the yearbook staff this year. She is excited to step out of her comfort zone and take on this challenge along with managing soccer. Another of her favorite hobbies is taking pictures. This is one of her many skills for journalism. Others include hardwork and her motivation. She is also a very funny person. An example of this would be when she was asked why she joined yearbook, her response was “because Izzy wanted me to and I really like Izzy.” With that being said, she is still excited and that wasn’t her only reason for joining.   More onto the random facts now, Natalea is close with her Dad and her two younger sisters. After High school she wants to go to college to become a Physical Therapist; although she doesn’t know what college yet. Natalea likes fall because “it’s not cold, and it's not warm.” Her favorite music artist right now is Taylor Swift but it changes a lot. With all that being said, Natalea is a great fit for the yearbook team.
