High School

South Holt has new teachers/staff this year. All of them have been very pleased with the students, teachers and the small community this school itself holds. All the new teachers are Miss. Weber (Preschool Paraprofessional), Miss Sybert (Elementary Music Teacher), Mrs. Martin (Highschool & Elementary Counselor), Miss Russell (Kindergarten Teacher) and last but not least Miss. Livingston (High School Ag). I interviewed all these teachers, this is all what they had to say. I asked her how do you feel about this place rather than other schools.

Miss Sybert had mentioned that you can talk to students, teachers individually here.

I asked her if there was anything from this school that reminded her of something. Miss Sybert said that “ That it's a lot like the highschool she went to,’’ Miss Sybert had a bachelor in music education, as she also had been in band since 5th grade. She had started on the trumpet, she had found it exciting and fun.

Next I had interviewed Miss Russell. Currently in Miss Russell’s Class they are working on the letter I, they are also working on fables. Miss Russell loves teaching math to her kindergarten students. She finds the school similar to hers because she had grown up in a K-12 school. Miss Russell also hopes her kindergarten class learns, be successful in their future life’s. The likes how the small community in this school likes to get involve, how the teachers work very good together. She feels that some of her students didn’t go to preschool so she hopes that they can experience all the opportunities they have, and make friends.

I also interviewed Miss Weber. She had wanted to be a teacher ever since she was a little girl, she also had a role model when she was in school. Preschool-has different themes every week, they have been recently talking about community helpers and what they want to be when they grow up. She also loves to see the little kids grow and learn to be successful. She was very excited to be able to be a teacher since she had wanted to do it for a long time. I had asked her “ How do you think South Holt is different from other schools?’’ She had responded with “ Seeing as we are in a small town as opposed to a big town we don’t have a lot of extra critical activities opposed to big town’s,”

I interviewed Miss. Martin, her favorite thing about this school is that she loves how personable everyone has been. Before she worked as a counselor at South Holt R1 she had worked as a Paraprofessional.

She had worked at a restaurant as a waitress at barbosas when she was in high school. She also loves being a counselor in our school community. She first worked at a school in 2017, at North Western School she was a counselor for 4 years. She also loves the small town feel at this school, she also loves this PreK-12 setting. All the teachers love the small community and setting of this school, and how the people are
