This morning, both CCCHS and WHS students attended the 2025 Kansas Healthcare Virtual Career Day. More than 4,000 students from 200 schools across Kansas attended the online event. Students could choose which area of health care they were interested in, and then they connected virtually with a professional in that area. Our very own Clay County Medical Center Behavioral Health professionals were even one of the presenters! It was a great opportunity to help our students get more information in deciding their future.

The USD 379 Bus Barn has started a bus behavior campaign for the second semester. Each driver nominates a regular rider who exemplifies good behavior and shows respect for both the driver and the other passengers. All nominees were put in a hat, and one name was drawn as January's winner. That student is Bristol from Wakefield Elementary! Her driver is Maurice Sharp. Bristol received gift certificates donated by Short Stop and Ray's Apple Market.
