No School Reminder- Students will be off on Friday, February 13th for Teacher In-Service and Monday, February 16th for President’s Day. We hope everyone enjoys the long weekend and we’ll see students back on Tuesday, February 17th.
We would like to share information about our upcoming Preschool and Kindergarten Screening Day, which will be held on March 4. To schedule an appointment please call the school at 417-256-2268.

Have a great weekend.

These include, Anna Temple and Emme Kastner for the girls and Max Mansfield, Cooper Nickey, Kaleb Scharnhorst, Jackson Mansfield and Camdyn Dancer.
We wanted to share a few more photos from Grinch Day- especially our middle school students who enjoyed the fun. This day was held in honor of our beloved bus driver, Fred, who loved the Grinch and whose kindness and lightheartedness, will always be remembered.
Christmas sweater day brought the festive fun-thanks to our students for showing up in style!
We had a surprise visitor at school today — the Grinch stopped by to spread a little holiday mischief and deliver treats to our elementary students! Many were thrilled to see him, while a few decided it was best to admire the Grinch from a safe distance. 🎄💚
