basically allowed us to keep our doors open and have enough classrooms for everybody, it was a band-aid.” “Now, we are able to really make a difference, and provide some opportunities for students that we just haven’t had here in the history of our school district,” he adds.“It’s a positive thing to have a school board and administration that believes in the programs enough that we’re spending that kind of money to renovate and rebuild.” “It takes an investment,” Dr. Beck adds, “and the community is willing to do that.” Teacher support anchors this progress. “Start with the teachers first because the teachers are the ones that are going to support the kids,” Dr. Beck says. “We’re looking for anything that we can find to give them that edge that they need to be successful.” “I think when it comes to the CTE stuff it’s important to find teachers that exude that passion,” Dr. Bentzen adds, “and I think that keeps those kinds of kids engaged in the content.” “If you have the right teacher and you’re given the right materials, the kids really want to take those programs,” Dr. Beck adds, noting how the board’s support enables classroom innovation.
