🌟 Someone You Should Know! 🌟
We couldn’t be more proud of our very own St. Mary Elementary School Counselor, Kelsi Buckmiller! 💙
Not only does she make a difference in the lives of our students every day, but she has also written a book to help families prepare their little ones for one of life’s biggest milestones: starting kindergarten! 📚✏️
Her book, Kindergarten Prep, was recently featured by Dakota News Now in their “Someone You Should Know” series! We are so grateful for the heart, wisdom, and care she brings to our school community—and now she’s sharing that same passion with families beyond St. Mary. ❤️
Congratulations, Kelsi, on this well-deserved recognition! We are so lucky to have you as part of our Knights family! 👏

At our back to school system-wide in-service, we celebrated an incredible group within our Bishop O’Gorman Catholic Schools family—our staff members who are also proud alumni!
