Summer 2015 - University Place School District

Chris Burns Named University Place
Teacher of the Year for 2014-15
“Our UPSD music programs have
always been a source of pride,” said
Executive Director of Teaching and
Learning Jeff Loupas, “and as a Narrows View Intermediate orchestra
teacher since 2012, Chris Burns has
worked tirelessly to elevate our middle grades orchestra program to new
levels.” In addition to his regular
teaching assignment, Burns teaches
fourth-grade strings, and contributes
countless hours outside the classroom supporting district-wide music
events and programs. He also serves
as a motivating example to students
as an accomplished professional musician, performing with the Tacoma
Symphony.

Curtis Graduation 2015
"Tonight we recognize and celebrate the members of the senior
class. They are internally driven
and consistently demonstrate a
genuine concern for others…so
much so that this year’s seniors
collectively gave over 7,000
hours of their time to serving
their community." Eric Brubaker
Principal
"When George R. Curtis was
asked by neighboring community members, ‘Just how do
they accomplish the many fine
things that they do in University
Place?’ He responded, ‘You just
don’t know the people from University Place’. The same could be
asked of Curtis High School."
Bob Robinson
Social Studies Teacher
"Curtis High School is the people
that the school is composed of,
which separates it from every
other academic institution. The
community members, teachers,
students, and administration
exuding Viking Pride...are all
a part of the rich tradition that
makes this graduation ceremony
so distinguished."
