Samantha Armstrong teaches a variety of science courses at SHS, including Forensics, Aquatics, and sometimes Anatomy. She also coaches Science Olympiad. " I truly enjoy working with students at the high school level because we can go deeper than to spark an interest, deeper than an 'A-ha!' moment, and can really dig into the content and how it relates to the students and our shared world." Thank you, Mrs. Armstrong! #TeacherAppreciationWeek @SmithfieldSchls
