Our 8th-grade science classes have been exploring the fascinating relationship between mass and force by studying Newton's second law. Students are actively experimenting and discovering how force equals mass times acceleration. Stay tuned for another exciting activity on this topic coming soon — we can't wait to share more science fun! 🚀🔬 #ScienceInAction #8thGradeScience #LearningIsFun #AllInForExcellence

This week’s Staff Spotlight shines on Jennifer Flaherty!
Coach Flaherty’s career journey is as dynamic as her energy—she’s taught 4th, 5th, and 1st grades, served as a math specialist, and finally landed her dream role in PE. Now, she’s inspiring junior high students as a PE teacher and coaching volleyball and basketball with unstoppable enthusiasm.
She’s also a proud mom to three daughters, including Sawyer who’s part of the Kleb family. All three girls are following Jennifer’s footsteps in various sports, making it a true family tradition.
Fun Facts: Jennifer babysat Ms. Hardin’s children while she was in college! She has broken each arm twice but still plays volleyball in a league, proving her passion and resilience. When she’s not on the court or in the gym, she loves soaking up the sun, pool, and beach vibes with her family. Her dedication, spirit, and sunny personality make her a true gem in our school community! 🌞🏐🏀💪

This week's staff shoutout goes to Mr. Talmage! Mr. Talmage has truly gone above and beyond this year, creating engaging hands-on science experiences and supporting his team with dedication and passion. A Texas A&M graduate in Wildlife and Fisheries Science, he began his career surveying endangered species in California’s Sierra Nevada. Teaching is his second career—after 18 years managing education programs at the Houston Museum of Natural Science and 5 years as Director of Education at the Lone Star Flight Museum. Now in his second year teaching science at Kleb, he and his wife are on an exciting mission to visit every Texas State Park and run a Half Marathon in all 50 states! We’re lucky to have such an inspiring educator on our team!

Say hello to Kelsy Young! Ms. Young is this week's staff spotlight! This year she’s guiding our 8th-grade ELA students, but her 12 years in education have taken her through nearly every subject and grade level — from 6th and 7th-grade ELA to World Cultures, Texas History, and even 6th-grade Science. Outside the classroom, Ms. Young's creativity really shines. She loves diving into a game of Dungeons and Dragons, getting cozy with crochet projects (she’s currently working on a star blanket!), and making one-of-a-kind paper crafts to personalize letters for her pen pal. Whether it’s art, storytelling, or teaching, Ms. Young pours imagination into everything she does, and we’re excited to see the inspiration she brings to her students this year.

Last week, we honored Stephen White as our Staff Spotlight of the Week! Mr. White is an inspiring 8th Grade U.S. History teacher who’s already making a big impact! Mr. White's journey is as dynamic as history itself — from flying on reconnaissance planes in the Navy to working in the oil and gas industry, he discovered his true calling for teaching while serving as an instructor in the Navy. When he’s not bringing history to life, you’ll find him coaching football and track, leading with the same dedication that defined his previous careers. We’re lucky to have Mr. White's energy and experience contributing to the success of our entire school community!
