We're excited to announce that Alan Hipp will be joining Smoky Valley High School's math department! Alan is a Lindsborg local and long-time supporter of SVHS!
"My name is Alan Hipp, and I’m excited to be joining Smoky Valley High School. I graduated from Fort Hays State University and have spent the past 29 years teaching high school math: 14 years at Salina South High School and 15 years at McPherson High School. Throughout my career, I’ve enjoyed helping students build confidence in math and develop problem-solving skills that extend beyond the classroom.
My wife, Heather, and I have lived in Lindsborg for the past 23+ years, and both of our daughters, Abby and Allison, are proud graduates of Smoky Valley High School.
Being part of this community for so long makes this opportunity especially meaningful to me. I’m looking forward to working with students, supporting their growth, and sharing my passion for mathematics at Smoky Valley High School." --Alan Hipp
#Welcome ToTheValley Mr. Hipp!
We're excited to announce that Taye Retter is Smoky Valley High School's new Business & Accounting Teacher! Mr. Retter is already familiar with us since he completed his student teaching at SVHS. Taye will also be helping coach football and track!
"As someone who values collaboration, connection, and a strong sense of community, USD 400 feels like the perfect place for me to grow my career. The pride, support, and friendliness that defines the community is something you rarely find elsewhere.
I am excited for the opportunity to bring an interactive and engaging business classroom experience where students are excited to participate, think creatively, and connect what they learn to the real world. I look forward to being a part of the Lindsborg community and contributing my energy to the fantastic students of Smoky Valley High School." --Taye Retter
