Title Survey
Our District receives federal Title funds to support our students with additional resources and reading specialists. In an effort to make our School-Wide Title I program the best it can be, we are asking parents to complete this brief survey. We appreciate your feedback on the impact of these programs and ways we can continue to improve. Thank you!

📚🥐 Breakfast & Books is the Week We Come Back From Spring Break! 🥐📚
Join us for Breakfast & Books — a special opportunity to grab a quick, grab-and-go breakfast with your student and then head in to shop the book fair together!
Students absolutely love spending this extra time with their families while picking out a brand-new book. Not only does this help promote a love of reading and lifelong learning, but it also creates sweet memories they’ll always remember.
Our book fair is extra special because it gives students the chance to explore books they’re excited about, discover new authors and series, and practice making their own reading choices. There’s nothing better than seeing their faces light up when they find that perfect book!
Every purchase at the book fair also helps support the fun activities we do alongside things like Beanstack, encouraging reading both at school and at home. Your support truly makes a difference for our students.
We can’t wait to see you there! 📖✨

News from the Nurse
Proposition S
On Tuesday, April 7, residents of the MVR-III School District will vote on a general obligation bond issue not to exceed $43 million. This measure will appear on the ballot as Proposition S.
Bond issues require voter approval of at least 57.14%. When approved, we will use the funds to make improvements at every school, enhance safety and security, and ensure our students continue having the learning environment our community expects.
Prop S will not raise property tax rates. Any increases in the amount of taxes paid would likely be the result of higher property valuations, not from an approved bond issue.
Wondering what the difference is between bonds and levies when it comes to school district finance and ballot issues?
👉 Bonds are for building and may include school additions, new buildings, as well as major renovations or repairs to existing facilities.
👉 Levies are for learning and may cover the salaries and benefits of faculty and staff, as well as textbooks, utilities, school and building supplies, food service, and transportation.
On Tuesday, April 7, voters will consider approving a no-tax-increase bond issue for the Meramec Valley R-III School District. You can learn more about the ways Prop S would invest in our schools and students at https://www.mvr3bond.org.
