James R. Amon

As a member of the Class of 1972,Mr. Amon's classroom was always one that I looked forward to being in. Educators do not come more meek ,humble or patient. How many of you remember the story of his meticulously preparing glassware for a procedure.......only to drop it before he had the chance to use it ?
I see from the comments of other students that he is fondly remembered .

my second dad- you will be missed. thanks for everything you did for me over the years!

I had Mr. Amon for homeroom, he tolerated us as high school students with endless patience. He truly was a wonderful man. God Bless him and his family. Praying for you all.

Mr Amon was a wonderful teacher! He always made class fun and interesting! Its hard to believe it has been 19 years since I was a student at SRHS, but Mr Amon is one of the teachers that I remember the most!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge!!

Mr. Amon was a wonderful teacher and mentor who would teach an entire Chemistry II course with only three students enrolled. His kindness and the lessons he taught will always be a part of us

Jim's class was my favorite.He was always very helpful,kind,and patient.My love and prayers to his family. The memory of his smile will always be a comfort to us all.

Mr. Amon was my Chemistry teacher many moons ago. I will always remember his gentle spirit and infinite patience. God Bless.

Mr. Amon (after all these years, he is still Mr. Amon to me) instilled in me a love of science and chemistry that has stood the test of time. His also was the high bar to which other teachers have been held. Thank you...
