We interrupt Kansas History Day preparations to bring you this – gifted facilitator Lindsey Dowell (who happens to oversee the History Day program at WRMS) was just named a 2024 Kansas Master Teacher!

Auburn-Washburn USD 437

Please join us in honoring and celebrating Lindsey Dowell, Washburn Rural Middle School gifted facilitator, for being selected as a 2024 Kansas Master Teacher! Lindsey is one of only seven educators from across the state of Kansas to receive this award.

Established in 1954 by Emporia State University, the Kansas Master Teacher awards are distributed annually to a small selection of teachers who demonstrate the attributes of exemplary professional educators. The selection committee consists of representatives from the Kansas Association of Principals, the Kansas Association of School Boards, the Kansas State Board of Education, the Kansas Parent Teacher Organization, the Kansas National Education Association, and United School Administrators.

Lindsey will be honored at a banquet and awards ceremony on Wednesday, April 3 at Emporia State University's Memorial Union. Cheers to you, Lindsey! You are so very deserving!

Washburn Rural High School chemistry students put scientific technology to the test this week, using Vernier probes to gather real-time data and create linear graphs for analysis. Students examined three electrolyte solutions to determine which had the best conductivity based on slope. Hands-on experiments like this demonstrate practical applications beyond the classroom – in this particular case, how a solution conductivity lab can be used to identify the electrolyte solution most suitable for consumers. Science rocks!


Come support your Jr. Blues and all the students participating at tonight's Senior Night Varsity basketball games vs. Emporia tonight, February 23! Girls start at approximately 6:00 PM and Boys afterward around 7:30 PM in the WRHS Activity Center. Seniors of winter sports/activities will be recognized between the Varsity Girls and Boys games.

If you are unable to attend tonight's events, coverage will be livestreamed at http://wrhs.net/live.
