This is a story when my sister and I moved schools. We moved from Bostic Traditional Magnet Elementary School to Pleasantview Elementary School. We moved from Wichita to Derby in about a year. Which means we moved schools very quickly and I lost contact with a lot of my friends. I didn't have much fun because I had know except two of my friends from Bostic. My parents told us when we were in 4th and 2nd grade that we would be moving to Derby because we had bought land in. They said we could…

Hi! I'm Mynnette, but I go by Mynn. It's easier to spell for most people, not to mention pronounce. I was born in Provo, Utah and am the oldest of nine children. My parents were both born and raised in Utah, but we moved when I was around two. Even though I have lived in Kansas for about 20 years, but I feel like I grew up in the Seattle area in a city called Kent. I currently live in Derby with my husband of 11 years and our fur baby, a sweet little rescue girl named Hundie. She is the…

On September 24, 2017, I attended a performance of Twelfth Night, which was presented by the Wichita Shake Sphere Company and was performed in Wichita Scottish Rite. Twelfth Night was directed by Kevin Sower. Stage Manager was Amanda Denning and the costumes were designed by Jane Tanner. The play lasted for about two hours. And for me the two hours went by so fast, that I didn’t even realize it. They reason behind it could be because the play was very alluring and interesting! “Twelfth…

Growing up in my family, graduating high school was not something you questioned but was more of something that was going to happen without any hesitation. Although this was the standard in my family, this is not how it was for many of my friend's families, as graduating high school was a much bigger deal to them. However, when it came to me, graduating high school became not only an accomplishment, but it became an obstacle as well. Stepping through the doors of North High School for the…

From a young age I have been self motivated to push myself and get out of my comfort zone. If I attend and graduate college, It would make me the first in my family to get a college degree. I…

Ten people in the Wichita, Kansas area between the years 1974 and 1991 were brutally murdered by Dennis Lynn Rader a.k.a the BTK Strangler. After years of fear and horror the BTK Strangler was identified and captured by police. This would not have been possible if the police investigating murders in the area were unable to connect the killings, create a profile of the killer, and then use that information to build evidence against Dennis Rader. The first and arguably the most important step in…
