It’s always special when we see one of our own take the next step in their journey, and today we are proud to recognize Kaytlyne Hamm as she signs to continue her cheerleading career at Central Christian College in McPherson.
Cheerleading requires a unique blend of athleticism, spirit, and leadership—and Kaytlyne has consistently demonstrated all of those qualities during her time with us. Her dedication to her team, her school, and her sport has made a lasting impression, and we know she’ll bring that same energy and commitment to the collegiate level.
Central Christian is gaining a hardworking, enthusiastic, and talented individual who will undoubtedly be a positive addition to their program. We are so proud of Kaytlyne and look forward to seeing all she accomplishes in this next chapter.
Congratulations, Kaytlyne! We’re all cheering for you as you move forward into this exciting new opportunity.

🍍🍊 Taste Test Adventure! 🍊🍍
This week, our first-grade students took their taste buds on a wild ride, sampling 16 different fruits! Some approached with caution, others with enthusiasm—but in the end, pineapple reigned supreme as the favorite. 🍍✨ Meanwhile, grapefruit… not so much. 😅
Even Mrs. Rizzo bravely gave a fruit another shot—only to confirm her original stance. 😂
We love seeing our students step out of their comfort zones and explore new flavors & experiences! 🥭🍎🍉 What’s a fruit you’ve tried but just couldn’t love
