Pioneer High School Student Heroes
Pioneer High School student heroes, showing others the way. We congratulate our students who serve at school, the Carson City community, and their country!
Heather Wright
Heather Wright, a 12th grade student at Pioneer High School, earned her rank as the cadet commander and Senior Master Sargent in the Civil Air Patrol, Nevada Wing. CAP is an arm of the US Air Force, similar to JROTC, but it is not affiliated with high schools. Heather was invited to highlight her volunteer work at a student luncheon where other PHS students in the CHS Naval JROTC participated. After graduation this year at PHS, Heather plans on working as a combat medic in the US Army. Heather has been able to fly and co-pilot several types of aircraft including an F-16 as a three year member in the Civil Air Patrol.
Shayne Jeremiah Beauford
Shayne Jeremiah Beauford, 10th grade PHS student, was elected by staff to represent Pioneer at School Board Meetings. Outside of school, he recently earned his Life rank in the Boy Scouts of America. He has plans to earn his Eagle rank soon and is working on a service project in cooperation with Pioneer High School. Shayne was featured in a Boys' Life article, in July 2016, titled: "A True Story of Scouts in Action." This article describes a heroic act where he saved his younger brother's life in a dangerous water rescue.
