It was an honor to speak to seniors at Class Day.

“Choose to do the hard things, but NOT give up when it gets challenging or you feel like you are failing. Proof that you CAN & choose to persevere is one of the most useful assets & skills you can have on your life resume.”

[Mr. Lahasky @LahaskyHistory]

Great message at Class Day from @PMAllen22 : "Do the hard things!"

Our thoughts and prayers are with the Leochner family as well as all of those within the Blue Valley Southwest community, as Coach Dustin Leochner has passed after a battle with West Nile Virus.

Help support the Leochner family during this difficult time: https://t.co/dSZbhawFqX 💚

Police at the secured scene of Wednesday's Chiefs Super Bowl parade and rally shooting have used folding chairs left at Union Station to spell out a message of hope and support for Kansas City.

Our student section is #NolanStrong tonight and forever. 💙

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

Don’t have the words - my heart just hurts for the Davidsons.
Sending love and prayers.
Rest easy #Nolan10 💕

Another way to support the Davidson Family is by purchasing gift cards, some can be bought through the meal train link below.

They are currently staying at the hospital - gift cards for meal delivery (door dash, Uber eats) or restaurants are needed

Please keep sending those thoughts and prayers!

Please continue to keep Nolan and the Davidson family in your thoughts and prayers, if you are one who prays.

Tomorrow, wear Nolan’s favorite color royal blue to show your support. Snap a picture and post with the hashtag, #NolanStrong

#FusionFamily,
One of our own, and his family, needs you today. Nolan Davidson of our 2014B Academy team is in critical condition following a vehicle crash last night in Shawnee. These next few days are critical for him and his family.

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

A year of successes & areas for personal growth, new leadership opportunities, and 2 personal life milestones: getting married & graduating with my doctorate👩🏼‍🎓

Grateful for where I’m at thanks to the love, support, & help from those around me.

(Busy) Year 5 of teaching ✅

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

We are so excited to have Coach @TrackDavidson join our fun XC family next year!

[Aaron Anderson @aanderson_aaron]

As a coach, you always look for players who put the team before themselves. I am and always will be a Jerick McKinnon fan. For the rest of his life, he could have told his family that he scored a touchdown in the Super Bowl but he chose to do the right thing. #team

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

And that’s a wrap to a very BUSY yet AMAZING semester ❤️
From getting married, to coaching XC, to helping with District SS & teaching, while also starting to write my dissertation…I am READY for a break but am so thankful to be where I am thanks to the love & support of so many

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

Time away from school gives me time to work on dissertation writing. Devoting a couple of days of hard work, then time for a break!

Have to practice what I told my students - a BREAK from school/work is a BREAK for a reason. Give your mind/body a break & do something for YOU!

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

Capstone presentations given tonight which means after 2+ years, we are officially done with the program!!!

Only 6months & a dissertation away from being “Dr”

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

TOP 20, THEY DID IT!!!!
Huge congrats to Brock (12th) and Ty (16th) who ROCKED it at State today!! Amazing end to the season with a PR and a STATE medal 🏅

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

And we are off to STATE!
Huge thank you to the XC teammates and parents & @BVW_JPCo members for lining the school drive early this morning to send them off!

[Paige Allen (Lankford) @PMAllen22]

In the life of a teacher, our job never stops when we walk out the doors at the end of the school day-not talking about the grading or lesson planning here.

Two students were trying to jump their car.@BVWRowlen gave them a life lesson, got their car started, & sent on their way!
