District K-3, Special Education, and Title 1 Reading teachers participated in LETRS training today! LETRS (Language Essentials for Teachers of Reading and Spelling) is a professional learning course that builds knowledge and skills to enable teachers to be more successful with curriculum and intervention materials. Thank you KSDE for funding this professional development!
A huge thank you to Gambino's Pizza for their donation of school supplies! On Monday, owners Jamie and Ryan Boden delivered multiple boxes and bags of supplies to Superintendent Loren Feldkamp and Assistant Superintendent Tonya Phillips. We appreciate you!
USD 464 employees kicked off back-to-school week this morning with an all-staff breakfast, hosted by First State Bank & Trust, following by an opening convocation in the Tonganoxie Performing Arts Center.
First State Bank & Trust presented a check to the district reflecting five cents for each time our customers swiped their Chieftain debit cards in the last year. Since August 2021, Chieftain cards were swiped 496,564 times, making this year’s donation a whopping $24,828.20! That’s over $1,000 more than last year, and it brings the bank’s total donations to USD 464 to over $160,000 since this program began.
We appreciate our partnership with First State Bank & Trust and thank them for their continued support of USD 464!
One week away! Come eat a hot dog, enjoy performances from the Marching Chieftains, Chieftain Stars and Chieftain and Warrior Cheer teams, meet all of our fall sports athletes, and help us recognize the 2021-22 TES Braves Students of the Month!
The first day of New Staff Orientation is in the books! We are excited to welcome 27 new teachers this year. We will be spotlighting them here in the coming weeks!
Our number one priority every day is that our students, staff, and visitors are safe in our district facilities. Last week, members of our administration team partnered with John Calvert, Director of KSDE's Safe and Secure Schools Unit, Lt. Brandon Marshall of the Tonganoxie Police Department, and School Resource Officer Brady Adams to complete safety walks through each of our schools to ensure we are doing all we can to keep our students and staff safe.
