![Chemistry Champion. Chemistry teacher Christine Falger was designated a comic book superhero during the 2023-2024 school year. She poses with her seventh period honors chemistry class, accepting the award. This is a result of the Climate and Culture squads work around the school, which focuses on building teacher morale. [Being part of a squad] is a big time commitment. We as a squad are required to give one hour of time a month, I am probably anywhere from eight to 12 hours a month, Krug said. [But the squads work] can make the high school a better place. I am really lucky to work with a number of teachers who also feel the same way. Even if we are doing more than some squads at the high school, we still feel like what were doing is really important.](https://aahsmountainecho.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Chrissy-Falger-Comic-Book-Superhero-Honors-Chemistry-1-e1712174011111-600x369.jpg)
