 A gregarious and athletic senior at Bonners
Ferry High School, Johnathan Gaspar is Upsilon
Chapter of Delta Kappa Gamma Women Educators'
student of the month for March. Not only is he
strong physically, he is academically strong as
well, carrying a 3.0 grade point average.
His success in his favorite sport, wrestling,
and his strength in his classes he attributes to
his coach, Conrad Garner, who he says informed
as a freshman that he had to have good grades to
keep wrestling.
Johnathan has wrestled since he was in the
seventh grade and last year took third place at
state competition and this year took fourth in
the heavy weight class. He hopes his wrestling
moves will aid him in his Mr. BFHS competition,
where his talent will be interpretive dancing.
Johnathan likes making things with his hands.
This is reflected in his enjoyment of welding
and fabrication work. This class along with
English class are his favorites.
Helping his dad with projects is what he does
with his outside of school hours. Together they
are rebuilding a trailer into a large long haul
trailer. For fun he also likes to read Superman
and Captain America comic books.
For his senior project he chose to job shadow a
nurse to find out more about that job. As a
result he knows that that is not the career for
him. Instead he wants to pursue his enjoyment in
welding and fabrication.
He plans to attend Montana State University in
Billings where he will seek an applied associate
degree in fabrication and collision repair.
Johnathan credits his parents, Don and Helen
Gaspar and Julie Mathews, for their influence
and support in his accomplishments as he works
toward his goals. |
