South Elementary 4th graders had a fun visit to Wonders of Wildlife this week! 🐠🦈🌊



Today, Superintendent Mr. Gemes and Assistant Superintendent Mrs. Deckard spent the day proudly representing our district alongside the Missouri Association of School Administrators (MASA) to advocate for the needs of rural schools.
They met with both of our state representatives and our state senator, ensuring that our voices are heard on critical education issues. They also sat through the House vote on open enrollment and listened to the Senate discussion on school protection officers—both key topics that impact our students, teachers, and communities.
We appreciate their dedication to making sure rural schools like ours have the support we need to thrive! 💚📚 #WildcatExcellence #AdvocatingForEducation #RuralSchoolsMatter #MASA #MissouriEducation



North & South Elementary students who met a special reading goal had the privilege to attend a literature festival at UCM yesterday. Way to go, kiddos! 📚👏🏼 #WildcatExcellence
