Did you know LC has a Fly Fishing Club?

The LC Fly Fishing Club teaches our students how to tie their own fishing flies, providing all the tools and materials needed. Kids learn patterns and techniques and develop lifelong skills using their hands and creative skills to produce something they can use in a healthy outlet, promoting outdoor recreation and enjoyment.

They have an Amazon Wishlist and donating items on this list to our club helps us serve more kids and give them a relaxing yet challenging and creative experience.

Congratulations Mr. Nunes on your retirement!

WELL-DESERVED: Join us in celebrating a few amazing members of our staff as they embark on an exciting new journey – retirement!

We asked several retirees to reflect on their decades-long careers and experiences. We’ll be highlighting their responses as we approach the end of the school year. Find all responses at SpokaneSchools.org/Article/2923757.

Please give a round of applause for Lewis and Clark High School music and orchestra teacher Angus Nunes who has spent 29 years with Spokane Public Schools!

Q. When and why did you start working at Spokane Public Schools?

A. I began working at Spokane Public Schools in the fall of 1997, fresh out of graduating from Eastern Washington University.

Q. What has been the most rewarding part of your work here?

A. The most important part of my work here at SPS has been the response of students to my instruction, and the overwhelming support of families for my/our work with their students.

Q. What are you most looking forward to about retiring?

A. My youngest son Kofi, and his wife Emerald are expecting their second child any day now, and my wife Lisa and I can't wait to go spend some time with our newest grandchild, Imani, who will be our sixth. Our children are in other parts of Washington, in southern Oregon and California, so we'll do some travelling to visit with them.

But I'm most looking forward to taking some time to meditate more, devote much more time to practicing my double bass, get lots of reading done of my history books and books on politics, and Lisa and I have a bucket list which includes travelling internationally.

Q. What’s your advice for anyone starting their career right now?

A. I guess I would say to them: You've made an excellent choice, because there's a vital need for good educators. This is a very rewarding career for those who really want to teach and learn from our students. You're not going to get rich in this profession, but it is an intellectually satisfying and noble career to pursue.

Q. Anything else you’d like to share?

A. There are many people in this district for whom I owe a huge debt of gratitude, amongst them Carol Pederson, Theresa Meyer, and Heidi Haynes, just to name a few.

I started my teaching career at Linwood Elementary School 29 years ago and have taught in so many elementary schools that it's easier for me to count the small number of elementary schools at which I haven't taught.

My time teaching at Spokane Public Montessori with Shannon Lawson has been a highlight of my career but ending my teaching career here at Lewis & Clark has been the absolute pinnacle of my teaching career. With all due love and respect for my colleagues who work at our other high schools, the students, families, staff and administration here at LC are the very best.

Coming to teach orchestra here three years ago and seeing students whom I started on their instrument at area elementary schools years earlier, still playing their instrument, and playing very well, has been very gratifying. This has been an awesome journey. Thank you, Spokane Public Schools, for the opportunity to teach and learn here.
