This past week Mr Hinkle and Mrs Beye's Senior MTSS students participated in mock Job Interviews. Students completed resumes, cover letters, applications and portfolios to present to the interviewees.
Those getting the positions based on their paperwork and interviews were Sarah, Kenley, Kora, Koryn, Brandon, Reid and Leland. Congratulations students!







Very proud to represent USD 487 Herington at USA Kansas event. I was able to share the great things we are doing! By the way, take a moment to fill out the survey. We have 99 responses but need more!
