Mr. Thornton

I am excited for this year and know we will have a great time learning new computer skills and about different forms of technology. In order to help you succeed this year, I would like to communicate some important information and guidelines. Each page on this site has some important information about our class.

I am in my 17th year teaching at Sierra and enjoy every minute of it. Over these 17 years, I have led student travel trips to a variety of foreign countries, and have coached cross country and track and field. I have received a masters degree in Information and Technology Literacy from the University of Colorado, Denver.

Outside of school I enjoy spending time with my wife Kristen and two boys Tucker (12) and Cooper (9), hiking, running, and photography. I am a nationally recognized senior portrait photographer. In 2021 and 2018 Senior Style Guide named me as one of their HOT 100 senior photographers of the year. In 2019 The Twelfth Year Magazine named me as one of the TOP 50 Established Senior Portrait photographers in the nation.
