This morning, Dr. Mike Bannen, Founder and Executive Director of Kansas Association of Veteran Teachers celebrated our very own, Michelle Bremenkamp as their FIRST EVER Veteran Teacher Award Winner. KAVT.org has only one mission: Honoring, celebrating, and advocating for Veteran Teachers (those who have taught for 10 years or more) across Kansas. We think they picked the perfect veteran teacher to recognize first! Congratulations, Mrs. Bremenkamp! Stay tuned for the full story on Friday!

We will be working with The Kansas Police Dog Association today, as they train to certify dogs for drug searches. If you see a stronger law enforcement presence than normal at our campus, please know this is just a community partnership event.

Today was Spring Signing Day at Liberal High School! Surrounded by their current and former coaches, teachers, teammates, classmates, community members, friends, and most importantly, their families, 11 LHS student-athletes signed their letters of intent to continue their academic and athletic careers at a post-secondary institution. Collectively, these 11 were the largest single group to sign all at once in LHS history. We are so proud of their accomplishments and can't wait to watch them continue to represent Liberal throughout the next chapter of their academic journey. Join us in celebrating these 11 LHS student-athletes!

An alarm was inadvertently set off at LHS today at 1:03 p.m. and a lockdown was automatically initiated. After thoroughly investigating the matter we have determined there was never a credible threat to staff or students. Out of an abundance of caution, USD 480 and our schools will always take any and all alarms seriously and will work to ensure the safety of everyone inside the buildings before sending external messages or answering calls. We appreciate LHS and law enforcement following the proper procedures and protocols. After a few more precautions the lockdown will be lifted and classes will resume. In these instances we urge parents not to go to the buildings under any circumstances. USD 480 will send out mass communications using every modality at our disposal letting parents know where the safest reunification location is if that is ever necessary.
