Pack the Backpack, presented by Central Office Supply, a division of Minuteman and Kix 101.1! Each month during the school year, we will be awarding $101 to a Kix Country classroom to help out with supplies. We will award the prize on the last Wednesday of the month. You can listen to each new winner at 8:30a on the Morning Kix Start.
Our March winner is Mrs. Randi Davis, 3/4 Multiage Teacher at Nevada Elementary. She was nominated by Dawn Hansen – Parent (her Daughter is in Mrs. Davis’ class).
Since the beginning of 2020/2021 School Year, Central Elementary in Nevada has offered full time in person learning. Like many things in this country, this did not come without criticism and questions. Our Nevada teachers, including Mrs. Davis (3/4 Multiage Teacher), lunch workers, and all other staff have stepped up to the plate to ensure children are being given the education, nutrition, and stability they need!
Mrs. Davis specifically has continued to foster a positive environment for ALL of her students by connecting, challenging, and love each of them. Additionally, Mrs. Davis has gone above and beyond to ensure our children feel safe and are safe during every school day. Finally, Mrs. Davis uses technology, learning techniques, and research to ensure that all of her students are given the tools they need to succeed.
If I could nominate every staff member of the Nevada Community School District I would, but you limit us to one 🤣.
Thank you for this great opportunity and chance to brag about just one of our great NCSD staff members.
-Dawn Hansen

He’s been raving about Reba to Martha, who clearly can’t stand the competition.’
