Thank you to the United States Army for bringing their DUNK Distracted Driving presentation to THS. We witnessed some incredible, high-flying dunks, but more importantly, we heard a powerful message about putting cell phones down and focusing on the road while driving.

Yesterday the Success Center had the opportunity to tour KCKCC Tech. THS is allied with both KCKCC and Washburn's technical education campuses. Students have an opportunity to gain some post-secondary training prior to graduation on the school's dime. It is a great way for kids to get a jumpstart on their careers!

The district officers led the event, with Kalea Baldock, Lila Carlton, and Josie Roe all hosting Red Talks and team building for district members. Tonganoxie hosted a community service session making emergency hygiene and food bags for each FCCLA chapter to take back for those in need within their own schools or communities. #fccla #tongienation #usd464
