One of my favorite Hawk Leader traditions! These juniors and seniors gave up their final week of summer to prepare for our newest Hawks, and their energy and enthusiasm today proved why #eastsideisthebestside! So proud of you guys! #hawksfly@OlatheEastHawks
@bosdovja92 The comment was written by one of the supposedly incredible grandkids. That’s why it’s eye-roll worthy. It has nothing to do with the numbers of children and grandchildren,
We see our home planet as a whole, lit up in spectacular blues and browns. A green aurora even lights up the atmosphere. That's us, together, watching as our astronauts make their journey to the Moon.
Tonight was the J.J. Allen Memorial Scholarship Art Show. We had over a 100 submissions and curated it down to 70 for a great show this year. With 10 scholarships being awarded this evening to some outstanding students. Handing out over $1,250 in scholarships! @OlatheEastHawks

The online trend of young men reading classic works of literature and posting about it continues.
@ChrisKindaReads was the first I saw do it, but it is spreading.
Don’t blackpill on the next generation.
These two “caffeine fairies” have been delivering coffee to our English staff. Even bringing their favorite flavors! This kindness is always needed in the world and I’m so proud their Hawks!@OEHawkTalkers @OlatheEastHawks
The teenager bagging groceries today asked if I wanted my bread on top.
I said yes.
He nodded seriously and said, "Good call. Structural integrity is everything."
Then he arranged my bags like he was building a cathedral.
His coworker laughed at him.
But my bread arrived home unpunched, my tomatoes unbrushed.
Sometimes the people who care too much about small things are exactly who we need.
Hate to say it but the “Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow” monologue from Macbeth really is a banger. “To the last syllable of recorded time?” Perfect. “All our yesterdays have lighted fools the way to dusty death?” No notes. Bill Shakespeare, you will always be famous.

No matter the scoreboard, Ethan Thompson brought the fight. Flying around on defense and giving everything he had for his team. Way to go, Ethan!
