The week has come. Months of work. Pain. Ups. Downs. The State meet is upon us and we are excited to put our mettle to the test! It all goes down on Saturday in Augusta. 6A Boys at 10:40, 6A Girls at 12:00. Be there or checkout the live stream! https://t.co/GpIFrzdI1q
Teaching is a profession, not a hobby. Professional teachers work to translate their knowledge, understanding, & skills to an audience that may not even be interested. And it’s really hard to make personal connections when students aren’t even in the room. The struggle is real.
Tonganoxie netted a pair of first-place finishes in the postseason. Check out the entire 2018 all-area boys cross-country team.

Some of the best professional learning takes place when we solicit feedback from the kids in our class... and genuinely listen to it. When we consider the point of view of our students, we significantly increase our potential for making their learning experiences meaningful.
Others may disagree with you.

I just spend the last two days writing my report cards WITH my students.
I asked them about their strengths.
I asked them to share a future learning goal.
We looked at their body of work and we selected a grade. Together.
Why haven't I been doing this my entire career?
Results are in! Girls varsity took 4th with Sophie Dewitt and Leslie Ostronic both Grabbing PR’s and medaling 10th and 11th! Jack Ryan took 11th on boys varsity and PR’d at 17:06! Lots of PR’s for girls JV and our boys JV finished fourth with Nicholai Jost-Epp medaling 6th 18:25!
