Received this picture from two Blue Valley CAPS Teacher Ed alum on their first K-State game day eve! One of the things I’m the most proud of is that we cultivate friendships in our class that last long past graduation. Can’t wait to see these 2 on the field tomorrow!

Teacher Ed welcomed Sean Phelan from Blue Valley North to walk us through some important facets of Special Education. He is a great advocate for his students and is so passionate about inclusion and the Special Ed community. We all learned so much!

Looking forward to supporting students in Educator Pathway Programs, including ours at @BVCAPS by serving as a judge for the NE Educators Rising Conference! Grateful for the opportunity to sponsor & support future educators!! McKenzie Lueders

We💙our student teachers! Spent a fabulous morning getting to know them & showcasing why Blue Valley Schools is the #1 district & top employer! Thank you to those who attended our ST Spotlight Series today! If you don't have a ST placement yet for spring - request BV!!!

We asked Kelly Wessel to speak to our Teacher Ed students about job interview tips, what she looks for when hiring potential teachers, etc. What we got was so much more! I am so thankful to have such great support & people willing to pour their time & passions into our students!

🤩Check out these future exemplary educators!🤩 Over the moon excited to see my friends in our @BVCAPS Teacher Education Program!! Thank you for attending the Johnson County Educator Fair! 💙McKenzie Lueders @BVCAPS Blue Valley Schools

We had a great day at the Men in Education conference hosted by Johnson County Community College. Thanks for putting on a great event!

These students all placed 1st or 2nd at the Educator’s Rising Regional Conference held in November and advanced to the State Conference today in Wichita. After competing today, many of them advanced to the National Conference in Orlando in June. The future of education is bright!
