[edit] Faculty
Pine View Biology teacher Steven Cox was Utah's 1996 Outstanding Biology Teacher of the Year. As of 2007 Steven Cox has retired and been replaced by Josh Krietzer. Mr. Krietzer will be returning back to schooling and be leaving Pine View High School at the end of the 2008 year.[2]
[edit] Sports
Recent controversy has arisen as a result of an emergency realignment of the Utah Region 9 division structures for sports. Three St. George schools, including Pine View were moved from division 3A to 4A. The reason given for the move was that smaller schools complained that it was unfair to have to play these larger schools in order to achieve a division title. [3]
In 1998, Pine View hired 74-year old Sark Arslanian to be the football coach.[4] His pay was just $1 per year.[5] In 2000 he suffered a heart attack and had quadruple bypass surgery.[6] Arslanian was previously a Weber State and Colorado State football coach.[7] Pine View replaced Arslanian with Roy Hosner in 2001.[8]
