DKHS Weekly Newsletter

I started at DK as a 1-1 paraprofessional and now have been serving as the Behavior Interventionist at the High School for the last three years. I have two children, one in the middle, one starting next year and one on the way! I love my role at the High School because it allows me to make connections with students, offer support and guidance during times when students may need it the most.

In my time outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my blended family. We enjoy camping, hiking and other outdoor activities.

23 of our Ag-Bio students visited Fowlerville today, taking 5 birds from their broiler flock project. Here, the class watched their 5 birds get processed and then the students chose 3 of them to be judged. We will find out later next week our results of our report (which is 12 pages plus graphs and coop diagrams!) and the scoring of the birds themselves.

This was definitely a memorable experience for them and now they know food doesn't just come from the store!

HOSA students packed 1,200 kits to hand out to students at the Trunk or Treat that included a fun Band-Aid, snap bracelet, and sticker in efforts to provide a fun and safe way to celebrate Halloween.

Today, HOSA assisted in "letting in the sunshine" by the washing outside windows for the Country View Senior apartments in Delton. This community act of service helped residents living there. We are thankful for this connection with community. Students were able to talk with some of the residents and enjoy hot cider after a chilly morning.
