As we wrap up our final staff spotlight of the school year, we are proud to recognize Dana Kallenbach, who serves USD 217 as both a 3rd Grade ELA and Math teacher and a Kindergarten Para. Dana is passionate about supporting students at every stage of learning and values the relationships she has built throughout the district.

Dana says her favorite part of working at USD 217 is the people she works with each day. She describes her coworkers as supportive and kind and says their encouragement helps make her job possible. She also deeply values the connections she has with her students and enjoys watching them grow, overcome challenges, and become excited about learning.

Outside of school, Dana enjoys hiking in the mountains, reading historical fiction, and spending time with her nine grandchildren.

One quote that inspires Dana is, “It always seems impossible until it is done,” by Nelson Mandela. She also finds guidance in Psalm 19:14: “May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing to you, O Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer.”

Dana represents the dedication, compassion, and positivity that make USD 217 such a special place. We are grateful for the impact she has on students, staff, and the entire school community.

Last Saturday was a beautiful celebration of hard work, memories, and new beginnings.

Parents watched their children graduate with tears in their eyes, alumni returned to cheer on the next generation, and throughout the day there were hugs, laughter, and moments no one will forget.

Congratulations to Valedictorian-Madylin Huber, Salutatorian- Alivia Bolin, the many scholarship recipients, and every graduate who crossed the stage on Saturday.

A special thank you to guest speaker, Shae Kirby, for giving words of encouragement to our graduates.

Thank you to every person who worked behind the scenes to make the ceremony run smoothly, as well as the BOE and our community for their continued support of our students and school.

Please enjoy some of the photos that captured the memories of such a special day.
