Orangefield Junior High is home to the hardest-working staff in Texas! Our faculty works tirelessly to provide a safe, effective learning environment for each and every student. Many of our faculty members received nominations for this spotlight, but we want to take a moment to specifically highlight one of our hardest workers: Kristen Sparks. Affectionately known as "Sparkles" to some of us, she serves as our diagnostician with grace. She supports our campus and community by ensuring that every student has access to an equitable education. Every day, she aids teachers with effective teaching strategies that empower our students. Thank you, Kristen Sparks, for your continued hard work!

On Thursday, Mr. Chuck Davis of the West Orange Animal Shelter visited Mrs. Castillo’s 8th grade Principles of Ag. classes!
Mr. Davis taught the students about his career and its impact on our area, the importance of responsible animal ownership, and even brought some adoptable puppies as well!
As a small thank you, students in Mrs. Castillo’s classes designed adoption flyers to try and help the dogs at the West Orange Animal Shelter find their “furever” homes!
Thank you again to Mr. Davis for all that he does for our area and taking the time to come and educate our Bobcats!
