Heaps of History

Mr. Heaps

“Stick to your task ’til it sticks to you; Beginners are many, but enders are few.

Honor, power, place and praise Will always come to the one who stays.

“Stick to your task ’til it sticks to you; Bend at it, sweat at it, smile at it, too;

For out of the bend and the sweat and the smile. Will come life’s victories after a while.”

Introduction to Mr. Heaps:

I grew up right here in Sheridan and am so excited to be teaching you or your student this year. After graduating from Sheridan High School, I obtained my bachelor's in social studies education composite from Brigham Young University - Idaho. History is a passion of mine that I gained while I attended Sheridan Junior High School. I love how History makes us think critically about the world around us and how we want to mold the world for the future. I love teaching because it gives me the opportunity to work with so many amazing students and help them become good students and good people. 

My Why

I was drawn to education by a deep-rooted desire to make a difference in the lives of my students. I love history and I want my students to do well in my class but my ultimate goal is to help students develop lifelong skills.
