Ms. Josie Jarvis became a teacher because she didn’t want to be a person that did the same thing everyday. Ms. Jarvis teaches computer technology and computer business to the eighth and ninth graders and Career and Technical Education (CTE) to seventh graders. Her main focus for the seventh graders is on how to use computers.

Ms. Jarvis was born in Payson and grew up in Spanish Fork her whole life. Ms. Jarvis said, “I have a lot of really good life-long friends that grew up with me in Spanish Fork, and a lot of family lives there to.”

Ms. Jarvis went to Salt Lake Community College where she received her Associate Degree. She then went to Weber State University for a year. Then she went to Utah Valley University (UVU) and received her Bachelor’s Degree. She is currently going to Southern Utah University to get her Masters Degree.

Seth Daybell, a seventh grader, said, “I like her class. I like working on the computer, and working in books. The books are easy to read and understand. I like when we are done with our work and can practice typing.”

Weston King, an eight grader, said, “She rocks; it is easy to be in her class.  She isn’t extremely strict.  She is a nice teacher to have. She does fun things with her class.”
