New Staff Alert! Kendrick Mcgahee, Floating Teacher
"Hello everyone! My name is Kendrick McGahee, better known as Coach K. I am super excited to join the Rosholt school district staff this upcoming year as a Floating Teacher. I am originally from Milwaukee, WI but I have lived in Stevens Point for the past 7 years. I attended UW Stevens Point where I earned my undergraduate degree, coaching certification and most recently my Master’s degree in General Education. I am the current boys basketball head coach at Rosholt, as well as the director of the national program, UTC Fire basketball club. I have two kids outside of my student athletes, Saint (2) and Willow (3months). They are quite literally my best friends!
In my free time I love to learn about new sports and the world. My background growing up in a large city was quite different than where I am today. So I am always open to new adventures and learning new things about life! I pride myself on being positive and trying to make the most out of every day we are all blessed to see! A favorite quote of mine is, “Adversity causes some men to break and others to break records!” I look forward to breaking records both academically and athletically! #GoHornets "

New Staff Alert! Jeff Christensen, Business Education Teacher
"I am Jeff Christensen and I am excited to join Rosholt High School and Middle School as the new Business Education teacher! I grew up in the small town of Scandinavia, Wisconsin, and I appreciate the sense of community in Rosholt. I am looking forward to contributing to the school and its students. I have over 16 years of experience in education, including teaching, academic advising, college readiness preparation, financial aid, student recruitment, and veteran services.
Before becoming an academic adviser at UW–Stevens Point, I spent seven years with UWSP’s Upward Bound program, where I guided first-generation and low-income high school students in preparing for college. Most recently at UWSP, I continued that mission by supporting undergraduate students, overseeing pre-nursing program administration, and leading recruitment initiatives.
I am pursuing my doctorate in education at UW–Stevens Point and am excited to bring both my academic background and personal business experience into the classroom. I encourage students to explore jobs, volunteer opportunities, and extracurricular activities as ways to grow personally and professionally.
I moved to Rosholt last year with my husband, our Pug named Miles, and our black cat named Salem. Outside of school, I enjoy gardening, boating, UTV riding, hiking, kayaking, board games, and playing the Pokémon Trading Card Game."

This spring, Rosholt Middle School students in 7th and 8th grades participated in a nationwide poetry contest through The America Library of Poetry. The contest awards $50 to $500 for first, second, and third place. A second award is selected randomly for participation. According to The America Library of Poetry, “Only about 20% of submissions will be published in one of our compilations.” As of this week, Mrs. Groshek has received notifications that two of our students’ poems have been selected for publication in this year's compilation "Excellence"! The contest winners will be announced on September 30th, 2025.
