Today, we are excited to highlight Mrs. Sheila Gollihue from Blaine Elementary School! Mrs. Gollihue has initiated a delightful tradition for the students at BES. Every Friday morning, she takes on early duty at the front drop-off door, with a whimsical dress-up adventure that began quite unexpectedly. She explains, “The Friday before fall break, I found a costume that one of the former teachers had left behind in my classroom. And I thought it would be fun to dress up to surprise the kids. Then, in early January, we had so much snow that I decided to become the Disney character, Anna. And from there, I started to dress up as a character every Friday, tying it to something happening in our class. For example, one Friday, I dressed up like a detective, and the class had to follow clues for the day. Mrs. Gollihue shared, “I love to see the kids' reactions. It's such a fun time!” Mrs. Gollihue has also transformed into beloved characters such as Junie B. Jones and Pete the Cat, all tied to reading material during class time.
Mrs. Gollihue shares with a laugh, “When I was in school, I often felt out of place and like I didn’t belong. I want our students to understand that they do belong here and that it’s perfectly fine to be different. And I also want them to experience fun as they learn!”
We appreciate Mrs. Gollihue’s creativity and adventurous spirit that she brings to BES every Friday morning! She acknowledges that crafting these costumes can be a lot of work, but she believes it’s all worthwhile when she sees the joy and smiles on students' faces.
Blaine Elementary invites everyone to stop by and meet Mrs. Gollihue during the upcoming school year. Come see which character she will transform into each Friday!

LC Schools Celebrates Mrs. Katina Ward– Happy Retirement!
Ms. Ward came to LC Schools in October 2014. She began her work at LC Schools as the guidance counselor at Blaine Elementary School. She shares, "At the beginning of the 2018-2019 School year, I had the opportunity to move to Louisa West. In May of 2021, I was given the opportunity to move to Louisa Middle School. Throughout my time in Lawrence County, I have had the privilege of working in several schools, each with its own unique culture, yet all united by a common purpose—doing what is best for kids. No matter the building, the mission remained the same: to support, guide, and uplift every student who walked through our doors."
"One belief has always guided my work: to treat every child the way I would want my own children to be treated—or even better. Our students deserve compassion, respect, patience, and unwavering support, and I have been proud to work alongside colleagues who share that same commitment each and every day.
"After 12 rewarding years as a Guidance Counselor with Lawrence County Schools, I am announcing my retirement with a full heart and deep gratitude. Serving the students, families, and staff of this community has been one of the greatest honors of my professional life.
"Throughout my time here, I have had the privilege of supporting students through some of their most important and challenging moments—helping them grow academically, socially, and emotionally. Watching students discover their strengths, overcome obstacles, and move forward with confidence has been truly inspiring and remains the most meaningful part of my career.
"I am especially thankful for the relationships built along the way. The collaboration with dedicated educators, supportive families, and hardworking students has made each day purposeful and fulfilling. Together, we have worked to create a positive and supportive environment where all students can succeed.
"As I step into this next chapter, I carry with me many cherished memories and a lasting appreciation for the Lawrence County community. I am proud of the work we have accomplished and confident that the future will continue to be bright for the students we serve. Thank you for allowing me to be a part of this journey. "
We thank Ms. Ward for her many years of dedication to the students at LC Schools. You have provided students the courage to believe in themselves and the tools to navigate through life's challenges. Thank you for helping students find their path. Enjoy this wonderful next chapter! Happy retirement! #LCisHome
