We're heading to the Women in Aviation International Conference this month, and on March 21 we’ll proudly celebrate Mission Team 31, USA, at the Endeavour Scholarship Award Ceremony. These incredible scholars will go on to U.S. Space & Rocket Center's Space Camp this July!

We're honored to be joined by our Mission Ambassador Theresa Claiborne at this event, the first black female pilot in the U.S. Air Force, whose trailblazing legacy is a testament to everything the Endeavour Scholarship stands for.
​
We cannot wait to officially welcome Mission Team 31, USA, into the Endeavour family!

I have always wanted to attend Space Camp since I was a kid. I have watched all of the Apollo movies and documentaries, and I'm following the upcoming Artemis launch closely...but it has become more and more unlikely that she will ever attend - until now.

Over the Thanksgiving break, I applied for space camp at the U.S. Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama.  A few weeks ago, I heard from the folks in charge that they liked my  application enough to consider me for something more - something different (They loved my essay and application.). 

​Enter:  the Astronaut Al Worden Endeavour Scholarship.  Would I be interested?  Yes. 

There was a half-hour virtual interview a few weeks and then a wait. After a three-day holiday weekend passed, an email arrived to reveal the decision.

It was so lovely to talk with you last week. It's very clear from your application and interview that you are a space junky! In the best way! 

We interviewed a number of teachers and agreed that your passion for Space Camp shined. We are happy to extend you an Endeavour Scholarship to lead Mission Team USA! We see a great balance of academic strength, ability to lead, and pragmatic skills in caring for students that will be valuable for our mission of uniting students in a love for STEM...

​Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns. Congratulations!

What does it mean?  I am headed to Dallas for three days in March for the initial ceremony  and to receive my flight jacket, and then, in July, I'm off to Huntsville for a week, where I will not only attend Space Camp, but I will also be a chaperone for the U.S.A. team of elite high school students.  Also attending will be students and chaperones from five other nations.

Needless to say, I am ecstatic, and and wondering:  How did I get here?​  I'm going to finally get that teenage wish.

Congratulations!

Coming home on the day I found out I was going to Space Camp - my husband had found a bunch of our space things (books, dvds, vhs tapes, posters, and records) and lined the driveway with them.   Some of these items are now in my classroom.

Thank you, Dale for supporting my dreams!

Measurement Fun

"Mrs. Hoggatt - can you measure how tall I am and then can I see if I will fit in a locker?"

What is a teacher to do - turn it into a mini math lesson - we measured their heights, then tried to fit into the lockers.   

FYI:  3 fit inside (we could close the door on one).

Practicing number lines with fractions and decimals.

February House Challenge

2/18/2026

 
Did you know that all the students are divide up into "Houses" at Neosho Christian School?   Each teacher is over a group of around 8-10 students, students remain in these house while at NCS.   Wanting students to feel a sense of family, houses were created a few years ago.

Every month, teachers come up with a house challenge to earn extra points.
Our February trait of God's Goodness is: Compassion seen through Jesus.

Students had to remove items from a sewer grate using only a few things (no hands) and try to determine the Bible Verse represented by the items in the sewer grate.

The BIble verse was Mark 6:34
