Educators Rising

This year, Bancroft-Rosalie chose to participate in the Educator’s Rising Conference in Lincoln, NE. Mrs. Vogt and four high school students, Katesha Henderson, Kylee Cole, Alyssa Bonneau, and Gabbi Wilson attended the event.

Educators Rising is a national and state leveled organization that aids young people as they consider becoming educators. Students learn about teaching, practice teach in small groups, have opportunities to compete among their peers while presenting lessons, and participate in both the state and national conferences.

At the state conference, our students listened to a very motivating keynote speaker, Frank Kitchens. They had the opportunity to speak with college vendors from area Nebraska colleges. They interacted with other students from around the state who are also anxious to become educators and they listened to presentations given by students.

Bancroft-Rosalie was the only non-Class A school. The others were from Lincoln and the Omaha metro area.
