Jim McCrossen is a mild-mannered yearbook adviser at Blue Valley Northwest High School in Overland Park, Kansas. Behind his gentle demeanor is a person with a wealth of interesting life experiences and a passion for making the world a better place. One way he works to improve the world around him is through his role as a teacher and scholastic journalism adviser. After working as a photojournalist in southern California during the 80s – where he covered things like the 1984 summer Olympics, President Ronald Reagan and a visit from the Pope – McCrossen moved back to his home state of Kansas to pursue a teaching degree. He’s been at Blue Valley Northwest since it opened 30 years ago, and the insights he’s gained about teaching and yearbooks are invaluable.
