After the Veterans Day program, there's always the question of what to do with the leftover flowers. We don't want them to go to waste, but the Veterans Hospital in Columbia was closed. Cindy and Charles Roller had went to lunch and were going to brainstorm what to do with the flowers when they met this gentleman from the Missouri Veterans Home in Mexico. He and some residents from the home were out to lunch and he agreed to take them back to the home to brighten up their day! What a cool turn of events and how neat our program got to help even more veterans smile on their day!❤️🇺🇸

Mrs. Chott took a group of 8th grade students to State Tech for a career exploration trip! Students had the opportunity to learn about careers in HVAC, electrical, welding, program management, and automation. It was a great day of exploring future career possibilities!

We are so proud and honored to have held our 48th annual Veterans Day program celebrating our community's veterans. This program is a long-standing tradition of honoring those who selflessly served or are currently serving our nation. We are so thankful to have these veterans from our community attend each year to teach our students about patriotism, sacrifice, and courage. Students from all grade levels came together to perform songs, music, or speeches honoring our Veterans. It truly is a special day to witness each year. On this Veterans Day, we want to thank all of our servicemen and women for their service! ❤️🇺🇸 Happy Veterans Day!
