Updated Substate Bracket for 3-A hosted by Kingman High School
Substate Basketball!! Kingman High is a host to a 3-A Substate Basketball Tournament this week. First rounds are played at higher seed with semis and finals played at KHS. #GoEagles
Last week Mrs. Wood and her JAG (Jobs for America's Graduates) students spent time learning about EMS. We appreciate our local EMS for taking the time to teach us!
The Kingman High School Family and Consumer Science classes received $75 from the "Pork In The Schools" program. These funds were made available through the Kansas Restaurant and Hospitality Association, with funding coming from the Kansas Pork Association.
One of the Culinary Arts classes used part of the funds to explore pork for breakfast and created a delicious breakfast buffet that included ham steak, bacon and breakfast sausage. #CTE #GOEAGLES
Congratulations to our district FCCLA winners Tori Tetrick and Justyce Henning. Their Star Event Project placed first in the district, which means they will move on to the state competition in April. They did a display and oral presentation, via zoom, over their Sock Monkey Service Project. Congratulations girls! #CTE #GOEAGLES
Girls day in the welding shop was a huge success! A special thank you to Mr. Birkenbaugh and PCC for bringing staff to help with this event!

As we continue to highlight CTE in our district, check out this video clip from Good Day Kansas featuring KHS Culinary Arts student Tori Tetrick and her mom with their family business "Sweet T's Bakery and Pie Shop." It's no surprise that Tori is a student in our Culinary Arts and Baking and Pastry courses. We are proud to see our students using their skills out in the community!

CTE Spotlight–FBLA
Last week approximately 400 students from 16 area schools came to Kingman High School to participate in the FBLA District V Conference. FBLA stands for Future Business Leaders of America. This club is part of our CTE program and is tied to our Business pathways. Throughout the day students competed in over 60 different events designed to prepare them for the world of business. This year, junior Anniston Henning served as the District V Vice President. Currently, we have three members of our organization serving at the state level. Izabelle Youngers is the State President, Sukesh Kamesh is the State Secretary and Anniston Henning is the District V Vice President. Out of the 12 FBLA State Officers, three of them come from Kingman High School. Norah Youngers was elected District V Vice President at the District Conference.
There are currently over 100 members involved in FBLA at Kingman High School. Throughout the year, the members have the opportunity to participate in many events, such as the Kick-Off Party, selling Red Wheel items, collecting cans for the local food bank at their Trick-or-Treat for Canned Goods event, the annual Christmas party, FBLA Week, Teacher Appreciation Day, March of Dimes collection, and the annual Recognition Dinner. In addition to these events, students compete at the District, State and National levels.
