Where Are They Now?
Peyton Badertscher
On July 17, Sheriff Crider swore in a new support services employee, Peyton Badertscher!
Peyton is a recent WaHi grad looking to deepen her roots in Walla Walla by serving her community with the Walla Walla Sheriff’s Office.
Peyton was born in Pullman, WA, and raised in towns across Idaho, Washington, and Oregon. She has a supportive family and a few dogs that she loves to hike with. Peyton loves being up in the mountains with family and friends, soaking up fresh air and enjoying nature. When she is not in the mountains, you can probably find Peyton nose-deep in a book, immersed in another world.
Peyton took Criminal Justice classes at SEATech Skills Center with Sgt. Smith for two years during high school. Both years she competed in SkillsUSA and made it to nationals for Crime Scene Investigation, recently competing in Georgia!
Peyton plans on continuing her passions in college, staying in Walla Walla. She has lived here for about 7 years and says it is her favorite place she has lived. Peyton stated, ''I enjoy the people and the culture, and I am so excited to help keep it safe and loved by being a part of WWSO."
Congratulations Peyton and thank you for choosing SEATech!

Walla Walla High School Teacher Attends Professional Development Institute
Original story published by CASE Institute News Release
Jessica Johnson, an Agriscience teacher at Walla Walla High School, recently attended a Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education professional development institute at the State University of New York at Cobleskill to teach the Agricultural Equipment Maintenance & Technology (AEMT) CASE curriculum.
During the CASE Institute, Mrs. Johnson spent 5 days in Cobleskill, New York, and 3 days studying virtually working through nearly every lesson in the yearlong curriculum and learning how to deliver lessons in an inquiry-based way that will shift focus in the classroom from teacher-led to student-directed learning.
"This new AEMT (Agricultural Equipment Maintenance & Technology) course is exactly what our community supporters and students have been asking for," said Jessica Johnson. "It will provide our students with the opportunity to learn advanced skills and essential knowledge to enter a post-secondary program and become technicians in the agriculture, construction, diesel, and automotive industries." Mrs. Johnson is implementing this new curriculum to teach the AEMT (Agricultural Equipment Maintenance & Technology) class beginning this year.
CASE 4 Learning is committed to designing an inquiry-based agricultural curriculum that meets the current demands of teachers, students, and industry. CASE 4 Learning provides comprehensive professional development and workshops for new and seasoned teachers to achieve lifetime certification, learn new coursework, and build a community of support. Upon certification, all CASE 4 Learning teachers have access to course updates, training, and support for the remainder of their careers. The curriculum is designed to spiral and scaffold course concepts, incorporate APP (Activity, Project, or Problem) modalities, and meet core standards to equip teachers and schools to help students become lifelong learners and prepare them for college and/or careers. The curriculum was written by CASE 4 Learning. CASE is an acronym for Curriculum for Agricultural Science Education and is an initiative of the National Council for Agricultural Education (The Council.)
