Debby Kay and Bill Altman walk with Willie Altman before Thursday's senior night football game.
Troy Morando, sophomore quarterback, evades a tackler and looks downfield Thursday at the end of the first half of the Chieftains' victory over Lansing. Tonganoxie won 6-0 in overtime to finish its season.
Jacob Hoffhines, Tonganoxie senior, works the ball between two defenders in Thursday's regional finals game against Maranatha. The Chieftains won 3-0.
Resembling the portrait of "Grampa Nightengale" behind him, Mathias, too, wears a gentle but weathered expression.
Tim and Pam Volk dote on Mathias, a 5-foot-tall, 40-pound visitor who's staying at their house. This Santa is unique not only in its larger size, but also because this is the first Santa for which Pam Volk has sculpted hands. The Volks sell their "Santiersmen" about as fast as they make them, and they are especially hot items this time of year. Most of the Santas, including this one, are given Biblical names.
Braden Abramovitz, a first-grade Reading Recovery student, pauses in concentration as he studies a word in a book he's reading aloud. Deniece Wakeman, the Tonganoxie Reading Recovery teacher, makes note of the words that Braden has a difficult time recognizing. She then provides creative opportunities to help Braden practice learning the pronunciation, spelling and meaning of the words. This is the first year that Tonganoxie has had a Reading Recovery program.
