Jayhawk-Linn is a small high school in Mound City, KS. Most of my class mates come for prominently agricultural families. I've enjoyed my high school and athletic career there. My favorite classes were advanced animal science. I enjoyed participating in FFA, volleyball, basketball, and softball.

Wonderful small schools with caring, passionate teachers. Great community involvement. Our twins went to Shawnee Mission schools from kindergarten through 4th grade before we moved south and we've had a much better experience at Jayhawk-Linn. No regrets!

Faced with enormous cuts and hard decisions, the board, teachers, parents, and community have rallied behind this junior high/high school. With a very strong support system and team work, the students are still among some of the brightest. Board members and teachers have continued strong leadership...
