Tiger Families-
The month of April will include a variety of assessments for our students. These will range from state testing required by KSDE, i-Ready testing, classroom-based assessments, and more. These assessments provide an opportunity for students to demonstrate what they’ve learned and how much they’ve grown throughout the year.
We want to take a moment to encourage each student to do their best. We also encourage families to support students by ensuring they get a good night’s rest, eat a healthy breakfast, and feel comfortable asking questions when needed.
We are excited to see the results of these end-of-year assessments, which reflect the hard work and dedication of both our students and USD 234 staff.
Please feel free to contact your child’s teacher, school office, or the district office if you have any questions.

These funds will help support the development of an inclusive playground at our new Early Childhood Learning Center—creating a safe, engaging, and accessible space where all learners can play, grow, and thrive together. This project will enhance early learning experiences by promoting physical activity, social interaction, and inclusion for students of all abilities.
The playground is expected to be completed by April 2026, with the full Early Childhood Learning Center opening by December 2026. We are grateful for this generous investment in our youngest learners and our community!

Our Counselor Collaboration event was a time for SEK Counselor's to gather to collaborate, spend time together, and receive guidance from Trish Backman from KSDE on KSDE's Bullying Prevention toolkit and Suicide prevention toolkit. Counselors enjoyed commardarie, great food, and fun prizes. This group has recently re-formed this past year. We are hoping through this time together that Southeast Kansas counselors feel supported by each other and can bounce ideas off of each other. Misti Czarnowsky, a counselor from Humboldt and current Kansas School Counseling Association Professional Development Chair has been leading the way in helping this group grow.
The next SEK Counselor Collaboration will be April 28th in Pittsburg to discuss advocacy. What a great opportunity for our wonderful USD 234 counselors!
