The Lomega Board of Education officially left Kingfisher with just one agriculture education teacher when it voted early Monday morning to hire Megan (Thormodsgard) Mueggenborg.

That void was officially open for approximately 14 hours before Kingfi sher’s board of education voted to hire Stefanie Wolf as her successor.

Though the process actually took longer than that, Kingfisher Superintendent David Glover said the district is replacing quality with quality.

“We lost a good one. I love ‘Miss T,’” he said, referring to Mueggenborg by her nickname. “But I feel we got us another ‘Miss T.’” Wolf has taught high school ag the last two years at Colleyville High School in Grapevine, Texas.

“I am passionate about FFA and youth development and am looking forward to continuing my teaching career in Kingfisher,” she said. “I am also incredibly excited to return to a small community that is centered around agriculture and is so supportive toward their FFA program.”

Wolf grew up in north Texas the daughter and granddaughter of ag science teachers.

She earned a bachelor’s in agicultural communications from Texas Tech University and then a master’s from West Texas A&M.

While at West Texas A&M, she also worked full-time as the recruitment coordinator for the Department of Agricultural Sciences and was able to travel the country recruiting students and hosting professional development and leadership workshops for 4-H and FFA students.

Mueggenborg makes the move to Lomega after four years at Kingfisher. She replaces Laramie Lopp.

“She grew up in a small school and community in Colorado a lot like Lomega,” said new Lomega Superintendent Cory Wilson.

“She’s familiar with our FFA chapter, our kids and their families. I feel she’ll bring a new energy to our program that everyone is excited about.”

Mueggenborg said the decision to leave Kingfisher didn’t come easy, but does so with nothing but good memories.

“I am so grateful for the support and kindness the Kingfisher community has shown me over the past four years and hope my impact on the agricultural program has made a positive impression for the students and family of the community, just as they have done for me,” Mueggenborg said.

“I look forward to joining the Raider family and am excited for the opportunities to come.”
