Meet Kim Dayhoff

     I was born and raised in Phillipsburg, KS, which is 60 miles north of Hays.  I graduated from high school in 1990 and then attended Kansas State University where I graduated with an elementary education degree, emphasis in science, math, and technology in 1994.

     My first teaching job of 6 years was in Osage City where I taught 5^th grade and coached volleyball and basketball while working on my masters’ degree in Instructional Design and Technology.  I graduated with my masters from Emporia State University in the fall of 2000.  I was given the opportunity to put my masters degree into action when I received my current position as district technology facilitator and junior high computer teacher 11 years ago. 

    I live in Osage City with my husband, Neil, of twelve years and our 9 year old son, Brant, who is in 3rd grade at Osage City and our daughter, Kiersten, who is 3 1/2 years old.  Neil keeps very busy running his two businesses, Dayhoff Underground and Central Tree Service, and spending time with his family.

     Our family spends any free time on the lake and MX track.  We enjoy boating at Melvern, Pomona, Perry, Grand Lakes, and the Lake of the Ozarks from April until October.  Brant enjoys dirtbike racing, swim team,kneeboarding, tubing, water skiing, basketball, baseball and playing outside.  Kiersten just enjoys anything big brother is doing.  I enjoy scrap booking, cooking, and spending time with my family.
