This week, our art room was buzzing with creativity as students dove into the world of Abstract Cubism Portraits! Inspired by the legendary Pablo Picasso, they played with Shape and Value, using bold Oil Pastels to bring their wild and colorful visions to life. These quirky, cubist faces are full of surprises—angles, colors, and expressions you never saw coming!

🍎 Position: HS English/6 Reading
In May, I retired after teaching for 31 years in Kansas and Oklahoma. During this time, I have served as a basketball and track coach, librarian, class sponsor, Kansas Association for Youth sponsor, Fellowship of Christian Athletes sponsor, school play co-director, and a member of the school and district leadership teams.
My husband, John, and I have three kids, Evan, Logan, and Keaton; a foster son, Darrian, a daughter-in-law, Ashley; two sons-in-law, Sean and Ethan; and three grandchildren, Carley, Gavin, and Macy. My hobbies include painting anything I can get my hands on, sewing a variety of items, reading historical fiction, and gardening. My favorite time spent is with my family, especially with the three that call me Grandma. Fun facts about me are that I am the seventh of thirteen children, I grew up on a dairy farm, I have three small dogs, and someday I want to write and illustrate children's books. I am excited to teach in Superior because of its quality students, teachers, and staff.
Welcome to #NebraskaWildcatNation Lora! We are glad to have you as part of our team! ❤️🖤
Having a little fun in Algebra class with some Math Libs.
Students had to solve equations to get a word or phrase, then they used it to fill in the Math Lib.
Wet grass from an early morning rain can't keep us from enjoying family time together! Our 4th Annual Lunch Buddy Picnic was again a success with lots of smiles all around! Share your family's pictures below.

High School Choir isn't "sleeping on the job", but instead doing some focused practice on deep breathing. Students put their folder or music on the stomach with the goal of raising the folder with each breath before they sing. Join these students and the 7/8 General Music class at their first concert on October 16th!

Please help us give a warm welcome to Kara Gilbert, our new Science teacher.
Hello! My name is Kara Gilbert and I am teaching 7th and 8th grade Science, as well as Chem I and Chem II. I am starting my 17th year of teaching here at Superior with 12 of those years teaching in Mulvane, KS and the last 4 years at Rock Hills in Mankato. I have one son who is a senior at K-State, and two bonus kids who are attending school at Fort Hays and Cloud County. Although we now are empty nesters, Shawn and I enjoy anything K-State and traveling! Superior holds a special place in my heart as this is where my mom was raised and I also spent many of my summers here with my grandparents!
Welcome to #NebraskaWildcatNation Kara! We are glad to have you as part of our team! ❤️🖤
