It's That Time of Year!
Schools all around are posting job openings. Keep an eye on the school's website for positions we have open at Crane R-3 or click below!
Communication, Communication, Communication!
Open communication among teachers and parents is so important! If you are concerned about something with your student's grade(s), schoolwork, or classroom experience, please reach out to the teacher through Rooms or email. If you are having trouble getting Rooms on your phone, let me (Mrs. Mease) know, and I will do my best to help! All teachers' emails are the same (last name, first initial of the first name, followed by @crane.k12.mo.us). I hope teachers are communicating with you as well!
Eligibility and 2nd Semester Grade Checks
Any 6th through 12th grade students who had any F's at the end of 1st semester are ineligible to participate in any MSHSAA sanctioned sports and extra-curriculars for the rest of this school year.
The first 6 week eligibility grade check is coming up on Friday, February 14th. The week of February 18th is the "grace week" for students to get grades up. Students who have F's when grades are finalized on Monday night, February 24th will be ineligible until the next 6 week grade check on Friday, March 28th.
Progress reports will also be sent home with students and emailed out on the following dates: Thursday, March 6th, Thursday, April 17th, and Friday, May 9th (these progress reports are not eligibility grade checks).

Let Me Know!
If you ever have questions, comments, or concerns, reach out to me, and I will do my best to help. Email is probably best as I check it quite often, but phone calls and in-person visits are always welcome as well! My email is measet@crane.k12.mo.us, and my office number is 417-723-5300. Many people have my cell phone number, and I don't mind receiving texts or phone calls at that number, however, I'm not going to post it on social media! I am happy to serve our school and community.
