8th Grade Trip to DCMO BOCES

School Counselors, Mr. Bennett and Mrs. van der Sommen are excited to share that our 8th grade students will be attending a DCMO BOCES Career Exploration field trip on February 15th during the school day.

During the visit, students will rotate to all Career and Technical Education (CTE) programs, learn more about the courses, as well as local and regional career opportunities. This field trip is a great way for students to continue to take a deeper dive into career investigations.

Students are encouraged to return alongside their family members to attend their Career Night event scheduled for Thursday, March 2, 2023

6th Grade Students study Cave Art

Mrs. Welch's 6th grade class dove into the study of cave art in their World History class, actually creating their own cave art!! Students had a great time and learned a lot from this experience. Applying the skill and creating their own work infuses the knowledge they learn in the classroom to real life experiences for them.

Students had a great time learning and growing with this experience.
