Monday, July 28, our club meeting featured Dr. Nick Gardner, principal of Ross Elementary School, let us know he is now also the principal of Eisenhower Middle School. With a combined near 1,000 students, they have 180 staff members. They work hard to decrease the number of "Chronic Absenteeism" and have lowered the percentage this past year but have more to do. Nick let us know that our "Kiwanis Partnership" taught the kids how to shake hands (something rather assumed as knowledge, but is not). Robert & Jan Maxwell are the Kiwanis liaisons with Ross Elementary with other club members pitching in to help from time to time. We appreciate Dr. Gardner taking time to come speak at our club meeting. ... See MoreSee Less
Today's meeting had multiple activities happening. Of course we had our happy dollars.
Greg Sims provided an update for the recent golf tournament. Thanks to all our sponsors listed that contributed to our golf tournament.
Then we did announcements (see the attached image for upcoming activities) and we rolled into elections for 2025-2026 for both the Kiwanis Club of Topeka (Downtown Kiwanis) and the Topeka Kiwanis Foundation. Congrats to next year's leadership.
Finally, we had our guest speakers, Brian Alexander from Bartlett & West and Kate Craft from the Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT), talk with us about the Polk Quincy Viaduct. Thanks for the update. ... See MoreSee Less
