Three people within Salina Unified School District 305 were recognized as recipients of the Salina Education Foundation s Loan Initiative for Future Teachers (L.I.F.T.) program.
Two 305 students and a faculty member with the district will receive the loans. The three were guests at a reception at the USD 305 district building and honored during the district s board of education meeting on Tuesday.
The students, seniors Lexi Doherty of Salina South High and Reagan Stein, of Salina Central High, will both graduate this May. Both students said they have had a good education in Salina. The teachers that we have in USD 305 are very inspiring, said Doherty, who will be studying elementary education at Kansas State University. They definitely help push students to reach their potential.
