BHSC Teacher Feature Friday (a few days late)
🔎 Each week, a central office committee reviews nominations and selects one educator from a rotating school (BES, HES, BHS, HHS). Winners receive a $50 Amazon gift card courtesy of the Kolton Kaiser Foundation. The nominator’s identity is revealed to the honoree on announcement day to keep the fun and suspense.
This week, the BHSC Teacher Feature Friday spotlights Henryville High School.
Matthew Payne, HHS, FACS Teacher; Strength & Conditioning Coach
Experience: 2 years with BHSC, 6 years overall teaching
College/University: Bachelor's from WKU, Master's from University of St. Francis, & currently pursuing an additional Master's from USI
Fun facts: Mr. Payne says, "This is a second career for me. Football was my favorite sport I played in my career but most don’t know that I played college rugby at WKU."
Mr. Payne said his favorite part of teaching is that he loves what he does. "This isn’t a job because a job is something you go to and collect a pay check. I love what I do and feel honored to help educate and pass on my life experiences with the kids here. My passion is fitness so I’d say teaching my weight classes and after school training is my favorite part along with being the head middle school football coach."
Mr. Payne was nominated by the family of Jaxon and Ben Kirk, who wrote, "Mr. Payne goes above and beyond when it comes to the health and participation of the students in the gym. He takes his own time to help them lift weight and work out during summer hours! He also stays after school to let the kids work out and lift weights. He coaches football and is an excellent example of sportsmanship and discipline. He works the kids hard but is right there with them, working along side them, pushing them to be their best selves. He is encouraging when they need encouragement and disciplines when they need correction in a positive, supportive way. We absolutely love Mr. Payne and all the dedication and time he puts forth with these kids on a daily basis. He deserves this recognition in our opinion."
Congratulations, Mr. Payne! Thanks for making a difference at BHSC!

3️⃣ ENGAGE: Commit to visiting with the child at least once a month.
4️⃣ RECOMMEND: Use your knowledge to advocate and make recommendations for the child’s best interests in court, monitoring their situation until their case is closed.
Is it right for you? 🤔

This week, the BHSC Teacher Feature Friday spotlights Henryville High School.
Brad Nifong, HHS, Social Studies Teacher
Experience: 20 years at Henryville High School!
College/University: Indiana University Southeast
Fun facts: I was one of our Special Education teachers for my first 7 years at HHS, I have two incredible daughters, and my wife is also a teacher.
Mr. Nifong's love of history fuels his work with HHS students. "I love teaching United States History because I truly believe it matters. For me, it’s important that every student (whether taking my Ivy Tech dual-credit courses or in the 8th grade ) leaves my room informed enough to become thoughtful, patriotic citizens. Henryville has provided me so many opportunities to impact students in the classroom and through coaching, and I am continually grateful that I get to be a part of our growth."
Mr. Nifong had multiple nominations from three families, including Loren Brent Franz, the family of Grace and Emily Stowell, and the mother of Keegan Lewis.
Mr. Franz wrote, "Daniel, my grandson, has not done well in all his classes. He absolutely does not talk about school unless he’s forced. The exception to this is U. S History! Daniel frequently brings up his experiences in Mr. Nifong’s class and the unique ways that he teaches history in a fun and creative way. Daniel is excited about learning in Mr. Nifong’s class, and this is a first."
The Stowell family wrote, "He has been a positive influence in our daughters' lives at school and as a coach. He provides a safe, encouraging environment, and challenges them to be their best selves. This has allowed our girls to blossom and show their personalities with confidence and self-esteem in themselves."
Keegan Lewis's mother wrote, "I am nominating Brad Nifong as a featured teacher because of the remarkable impact he has had on our son this year. Our son has always been a strong student and generally enjoys school, but as an 8th grader this year, he is coming home energized and eager to talk about Mr. Nifong’s history class. History was not a subject he previously gravitated toward, yet he is now excited to share what he is learning and even brings projects home to continue working on them. Mr. Nifong has an incredible ability to bring learning to life in his classroom, and that enthusiasm has sparked a genuine curiosity and excitement for learning in our son. And for anyone who has been around a middle school student recently, sparking interest and excitement in anything is a large task."
Mr. Nifong, thank you for choosing to make a difference at BHSC!

"Henryville Jr./Sr. High School serves grades 7–12 and has over 500 students in the building. We are supported by two outstanding school counselors, Cameron Clark and Carrissa Burns, who guide students in their academic planning and decision-making.
Cameron and Carrissa are responsible for a wide range of tasks. They ensure each student is planning courses aligned with future goals and aspirations. Henryville is unique in that, despite being a small school, we are able to offer a wide variety of opportunities. We currently have five career pathways available to students: engineering, medical, education, business, and hospitality. In addition, we recently became an Early College–endorsed high school, allowing us to offer many college credit opportunities to our students. Over the past three years, more than 30% of our seniors have earned the Indiana College Core, graduating with 30 transferable college credit hours.
We also send students to Prosser Career Education Center, which partners with us to help students explore additional career opportunities. Cameron and Carrissa coordinate all of this, ensuring students stay on track with high school graduation requirements, dual credits, pathway requirements, and Prosser enrollment.
Beyond academics, they play a vital role in supporting the mental health of our students, helping them navigate the many challenges teenagers face during these formative years. Cameron and Carrissa are also incredibly flexible. With constantly changing requirements and regulations, they are always willing to problem-solve and find ways to make things work for our school and our students.
They truly put students first, and we deeply appreciate all that they do."
Miss Burns and Mr. Clark, thank you for your work with BHSC students!

Seth Caudill, HHS, Engineering/Design Teacher
Experience: 9 years at HHS, 14 years total
College/University: IUS
Fun fact: Before becoming a teacher, Mr. Caudill was a licensed electrician.
Mr. Caudill says, "My favorite part of teaching at Henryville High School is helping students make real-world connections between content areas. In the engineering classroom, we are able to demonstrate how content learned in other classes can be applied to real-world situations through projects and activities. Professionally, I am most proud of establishing and growing the engineering and robotics programs. Thanks to the support of the school board, administrators, and local businesses, we have been able to offer opportunities to our students that have never existed at Henryville High School before. "
The Tieken Family nominated Mr. Caudill, writing, "Besides being a great teacher, Mr. Caudill also puts in additional time as a tennis coach and a Robotics coach. His commitment to students and players is far more than just being there. He is passionate in all that he does and goes above and beyond. Last year’s MS Robotics success, and this year’s MS boys tennis success are just a few examples of his commitment!"
Mr. Caudill, thank you for working to create opportunities for BHSC students!
