R&S Maintenance Services in Meriden is sponsoring Jeff West High School student teams to compete in the Bots KC competition next Spring.  Students and sponsoring teachers Leslie Bruton and Rod Smith toured R&S recently to get an idea of the machines used at R&S.

With school underway, many buses are on the road transporting students to and from school and school events.  It is important that all drivers obey the traffic laws especially those pertaining to stopping when a bus is stopping or stopped to load or unload students.  The law is very specific in that when the bus stop arm is out ALL traffic going in either direction is required to stop until the bus stop arm is retracted.  When approaching a bus with it's warning lights on indicating it will be stopping please stop so our students can safely exit the bus and head to their home.

We appreciate your assistance with this safety matter for our students.

High School Art Teacher of the Year

Mark C. Ralston, High School Art Teacher at USD #340 Jefferson West High School,

has been named Outstanding Secondary Level Art Educator of the Year. Ralston has taught and created art for over 36 years, and during that time has seen the ripple effect his work as a cooperative teacher for multiple student teachers who now offer excellent art programs themselves. Ralston identified a

need for art teachers in the northeast area of the state who often felt isolated and created the Northeast Kansas Art Teacher Forum. The Forum offers unique professional development where teachers can come together to share ideas, participate in hands-on workshops, and troubleshoot problems. A sponsor and coach for multiple teams, Ralston notes that coaching and teaching are similar in that “you make an effort to instill in the students a drive to be their best and introduce tools and techniques to help them grow.”
