As we move into fall, your calendar is probably becoming dotted with all sorts of traditions such as the first football game, homecoming, fall carnival, volleyball, band performances, and school picture day!
It doesn’t matter if you’re teaching elementary, middle school, or high school—each level has its own unique traditions to observe.
We encourage you to enjoy those events—participate in or attend as many as possible! It gives your students a chance to see you in a different light—and you get to understand your students’ interests and abilities away from your classroom.
While all those activities are great and add character to your school, don’t forget to come back to Manhattan for some purple events that are traditions on our campus!
KSU’s Homecoming runs October 19 through 25, with the theme “Coast to Coast.” Among the events is the annual Homecoming Philanthropy 5K Run/Walk on October 19 to benefit the Special Olympics Kansas. The homecoming parade starts at 5 p.m. October 24, followed by a pep rally.
Check out all the homecoming details at http://www.k-state.com/s/1173/newsletterSocial.aspx?sid=1173&gid=1&pgid=5006. We hope to see you dressed in purple and back on campus for a Homecoming visit!
