Taking a break from helping a Geometry student with thier math test, Math teacher Alix Lifka-Resslman smiles at the front of the classroom.
Alix Lifka-Reselman is February’s Teacher of the Month. She has been teaching for a total of 8 years and has been here for 3 years.
L-R was nominated by a variety of past and current Academic Decathlon Members for her efforts to make her classes and clubs in her words, “Not boring.” She decided to become a teacher because she doesn’t like being bored and doesn’t like when students are bored. She makes it her goal to make every day different and fun. When in college she wanted to teach chemistry but claimed, “They didn’t let me blow enough things up.” She then decided to teach math to help students hate math less.
She appreciates being named Teacher of the Month and that students recognize that she is trying to make learning fun for them.

![Rhyan Miller is the April student of the month. Miller is the daughter of Charity and Rich Miller, and has maintained a 3.925 GPA. Her three favorite classes in high school have been drama as literature, Prostart II, and news journalism. Miller participates in cross country, theater, individual and large group speech, the prostart team, student council, NHS, silver cord, and track. She feels that her experiences in those activities have made her more extroverted, sharing that she is "not afraid of [her] own voice anymore." Miller plans to attend Winona State University to major in psychology and minor in political science. Her advice to others is to "Fake it 'till you make it." She feels she was selected as student of the month due to her increased active presence in the classroom. She is also thankful for the good parking spot. In honor of her achievements, Raccoon Valley Bank has donated $100 to the ADM Scholarship Foundation.](https://blackandredgister.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/20260427_104331-600x450.jpg)
