West Point Public Schools

58 Years Ago in Cadet History… The Cadets were true ‘Gridiron Greats’ on the football field during the 1965 season, going 10-0, being crowned the Husker Conference Champions, and made West Point the football capital of the state for 1965! 🏈 They had great support from the pep club, cheerleaders, students, and community as well! #ThrowbackThursday

I'll be teaching K-8 Health and Physical Education, and I will be coaching high school and youth football along with helping with junior high track.
