Hey, Bobcats! HS Virtual teacher, Mr. Matt VanBrandt, was recognized as Staff Member of the Month for February at last night’s Board of Education meeting and was presented with a $100 gift card by Meghann Borgelt from the Leski Wittman Insurance Agency. Matt was nominated by Mr. Jay Yockey for his high level of expectations for his students and athletes and he continues to prove what success looks like at Whiteford Agricultural Schools in the classroom and on the field. Mr. Fielder, members of the board, Mr. Butz and Mr. Huard, expressed their appreciation for Matt’s professionalism, dedication to the district, and the time he also puts in coaching. He is one of the best and this nomination was well deserved.
Hey, Bobcats! The Whiteford Bobcats competed in last weekend’s Robotics Tournament at Ferndale High School. They overcame many challenges including a difficult schedule that early on put them in almost last. But with perseverance, a positive attitude, and the hard work they put in all season long, they advanced to the semi finals and were eliminated in the last round. The Bobcats finished third overall against steep competition, earned more than half of the district points needed to qualify for States, and won the Graciousness and Professionalism Award. “This team has consistently pounced on the opportunity to demonstrate sportsmanship. Their “Scouting for Dummies" guide allows newer students to claw their way to success. This team can climb any mountain and makes it a point to assist other teams” said judges at First Robotics when awarding the Bobcats. Next they will go on to compete at the St. Joseph Tournament and expect to advance to this year's State competition with over 500 teams fighting for the limited spots.
