We are hiring an instructor for the Learn to Work program. This unique initiative connects students across all three LaGrange County schools with exposure to the manufacturing industry and hands-on skills right here in our community.
👉 What’s the role?
This instructor will guide students in the Industrial Electrical Maintenance pathway, helping them gain hands-on experience with electrical systems, safety practices, troubleshooting, and the technical skills needed to succeed in today’s workforce. They will also work directly with our industry partners to provide students with real-world learning opportunities and to strengthen the connection between education and local employers.
👉 Who can apply?
We are specifically seeking candidates with an Industrial Electrical Maintenance background. A traditional teaching license is NOT required – industry professionals can qualify through a Workplace Specialist license; your experience and desire to mentor students matter most!
This is an incredible opportunity to make an impact on students’ futures while sharing your professional expertise.
Say hello to our amazing Ameera Ellis! This is her second year as an interventionist assistant, and let’s just say—she’s got it down to a science. Ameera is equal parts funny, friendly, sarcastic, and kind (a winning combo, if you ask us). The students adore her, and so do we! She knows what she’s doing, does it well, and keeps us all laughing along the way. We’re so lucky to have her on our team! 💛✨
Thank you for everything you do, Mrs. Ellis!!
In the morning, they traveled from classroom to classroom, taking on all kinds of creative challenges:
🌲 Played a new Paul Bunyan game, “Keep the Log in the River”
🏰 Designed a castle fit for Beauty and the Beast
🐂 Built a pen for Babe the Blue Ox
🍎 Engineered a floating wooden raft for Johnny Appleseed’s apples
They wrapped up the day with special treats for everyone—a sweet ending to a day full of imagination and fun! 💫
Remember to bring a blanket or chairs for seating.
We’re kicking off our first spotlight of the year with Kim Sheets!
Kim is a dedicated 3rd grade teacher who has been a proud Scottie for 13 years! Beyond the classroom, she enjoys scrapbooking and fishing, but what truly makes her shine is the way she cares for her students. Kim not only supports their academic growth but also invests in their emotional well-being.
She’s a brilliant teacher, a role model for us all, and we’re so grateful for the impact she makes every day.
Thank you, Kim, for everything you do!
Families can enjoy a craft, STEM activity, story time, snack mix station, Kona Ice, and a hot dog dinner. Plus, every student will take home a free book!
Don’t forget to bring lawn chairs or a blanket to sit on.
We can’t wait to see you there!
