Last, but certainly not least on our coverage of new staff members, is Heather Carvey. She has joined us as a cook in Food Service and is working hard to help feed our students and staff. Working most of the time in Valley Falls is allowing her to spend more time with her daughter, Claire. She also loves helping Jo at Aahhsome Blossom, especially during the holidays. Other current jobs include working/volunteering at the Topeka Habitat for Humanity Restore, painting projects and landscaping yards.

After high school, she graduated from the Art Institute at Gem City College in Quincy, Illinois, in Jewelry Design & Clock Repair. When she has free time, you might see her riding bikes or exploring outside with Claire, along with cooking and baking together. Other hobbies include decorating, gardening and fixing up their old house in Valley Falls. Her favorite foods are fish that they catch and crepes with fresh berries. Welcome to the Dragon Team!

Danielle Garza is finding out that there is never a dull moment in our HS office! As the new HS Administrative Assistant, she is looking forward to working with the students and being a bigger part of the Dragon family. She grew up in Valley Falls and likes that her kids are growing up here too. A few of them have had teachers that also taught her. She previously worked for the Kansas Dept. of Children & Families, owns a photography business and volunteers with the Valley Falls Recreation Commission.

When she has free time, you might find her enjoying her favorite foods, which are quesabirria and cheesecake. She also enjoys doing things with her kids, working out and paddleboarding. We are glad to have her as part of the Dragon team!
