THINKING ABOUT A CAREER IN EDUCATION? Mrs. Kroeplin is planning to take any students interested in a teaching career to the Educator’s Rising Learning Expo on the campus of DWU in Mitchell on November 10. These events are designed as mini conferences that our 9th thru 12th graders get to learn more about a career in education. Each Learning Expo is hosted by the Universities Education Department. These sessions are focused on sharing about different teaching and learning strategies as well as highlight what it would be like to be in their teaching prep program. Sign up with Mrs. Kroeplin in the FACS room if you want to go.
