Local students explore teaching as Virginia vacancies decline

FISHERSVILLE — Walking into a classroom full of students who are considering being teachers delighted Ryan Barber. The Waynesboro assistant superintendent was part of a group that answered questions from students in the Teachers for Tomorrow programs at Valley Career and Technical Center and the Shenandoah Valley Governor's School in Fishersville at the end of October. It was the second straight year the panel of superintendents and central office was hosted by the programs, giving students a chance to ask questions of those in leadership positions in Augusta County, Staunton and Waynesboro. Barber believes programs like Teachers for Tomorrow can plant seeds that hopefully grow in the years to come, eventually producing more and more teachers in area classrooms. Part of Barber's job is recruiting and hiring staff for Waynesboro Public Schools. Finding teachers is never easy, although according to the The Virginia Department of Education the numbers are improving. Since 2023, teacher vacancies across Virginia have dropped by almost 36% . In Region 5, which includes the Shenandoah Valley, the teacher vacancy rate is 1.4%, lower than the state rate of 2.5%. Those are good signs and programs like Teachers for Tomorrow can help identify students who are interested

Jackson Fitzgerald ran for 156 yards and three touchdowns in Riverheads' 41-6 win over Luray in the Region 1B quarterfinals on Friday, Nov. 13. No. 2 Riverheads will host No. 3 Altavista on Nov. 20. Altavista beat No. 6 Surry County 47-0 to advance. Riverheads and Altavista met in Week 2 of the regular season with the Gladiators winning a thrilling 43-36 game in overtime. Against Luray, Riverheads finished the night with 341 yards on the ground and no passing yards. Sophomore Gage Hutton added 97 yards and a touchdown. Coach Ray Norcross said the Riverheads offensive line played really well, opening holes that the running backs ran through. Riverheads' defense kept Luray to the one late score and 187 yards, all on the ground. Luray was 1-for-7 passing but for zero yards. "They have a dream," Norcross said of his team. "Step two is next week." Norcross said he won't be satisfied until they get to where they want to be. Ultimately that's a state championship, but the coach has been doing this long enough to know that you take it one week at a time. "We have to play whoever next week," he said. "We don't worry about
