Happy Monday! I’m reaching out to see if you’d be interested in volunteering for our new community reading program aimed at improving students’ reading skills. Volunteers would commit one hour, one day a week, simply sitting with a student and listening to them read. We plan to start the first week of February. Please let me know if you’d like to participate. Thank you for considering being part of this exciting new program! Sincerely, Alicia Burrows

No School on Monday, January 19. We will see everyone Tuesday morning!

Students had the opportunity to tour State Fair Community College in Sedalia. During the visit, they explored the campus and learned about a variety of programs, including Allied Health—nursing, radiology, ultrasound technology, and medical technician—as well as General Studies programs such as machinery, automotive, agriculture science, and welding. It was a great hands-on experience and an excellent opportunity for our students to explore future career paths!
