Braves Bulletin
August 24 - August 28
It was so nice seeing so many of our families at Open House! The staff and I are excited to get the school year started and look forward to a wonderful year together.
We will see everyone on the FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL — Monday, August 24th! 🎉💜Let’s make it a great year, Braves!
In our ongoing efforts to establish positive student routines and avoid any confusion or miscommunication regarding transportation, we ask that students follow their regular pick-up/drop-off routine starting on the first day of school. Parents are welcome to meet their student at school, on the first day, after they arrive on the bus and snap a picture outside.
MVR-III uses the BusRight Parent App to communicate bus routes and times with parents. BusRight is a FREE parent app to allow parents to, in real-time, follow their child’s bus route to and from school, receive notifications when the bus begins and ends its route, view the expected arrival time at your child’s designated bus stop, and receive communication from the Transportation Department.
To access BusRight, please follow these simple steps:
Download the App: Download the BusRight app from your mobile device's app store.
Create an Account: Use your Infinite Campus email address to create a login.
Track Your Student: Begin tracking your child's bus routes immediately.
If you have issues creating your account, you will need to verify with your school building office that you are listed as the primary guardian in Infinite Campus. Find out more on BusRight on the District website under Transportation
At Open House we will have a transportation station set up in the gym for parents to talk to our drivers and learn more about bus times and routes, but more information on BusRight is also included in the picture.
It is the goal of the Meramec Valley R-III School District to provide a safe environment for students. The district recognizes that rules regarding dismissal of students are a necessary part of the district’s safety program. All visitors must enter the school through the office doors. Visitors are required to show their ID to pick up their student(s). Students who are going to be picked up before the end of the school day will be released through the office only.
We will be using Kid Account again this year at all dismissal locations: SACC. each individual bus, and for car riders.
- Car Riders: We will come to your car window and scan a Kid Account Card- Please make sure anyone that is allowed to pick up your child is on their portal and approved by you. This is a safety feature that helps us accuratley know to whom we are releasing students to if an adult is picking up your child and they are NOT listed on the emergency contact, we will be asking for an ID- to keep the line moving we may ask you to pull out of line until we can confirm ID and contact the child's guardian. If you have people that may need to pick up your child, it works if you take a picure of the card. The line and scanning move quicker with the card ready, which is our main goal.
- The KIDaccount Parent App keeps parents and caregivers connected and informed during school dismissal. Easily access secure, up-to-date pick-up information and share digital ID access with authorized individuals—ensuring your child’s dismissal is safe, efficient, and stress-free.

A copy of your child’s updated shot record should be turned into the office, as many shots are required by law. Special health conditions regarding your student should be reported through our Medical Information Form filled out during the annual student information update. You can bring your child's updated shot records to Open House on August 19th.
At Meramec Valley R-III School District, we remain committed to ensuring every student has access to healthy, nutritious meals that support their learning and success in the classroom. While we have been proud to provide free breakfast over the last two years, it has been funded at a shortfall, and the district has been making up the difference to cover the cost. As a result, the district will no longer be able to provide free breakfast to all students.
To help families navigate these changes, we highly encourage everyone to complete the Free and Reduced-Price Meal Application. Eligibility guidelines change from year to year, and many families who may not have qualified in the past find that they do now. This application will be available at Open House. Approved applications not only assist your family with meal costs but also ensure our schools continue to receive other vital funding.
Money for your child's meal account can be deposited online or brought to school in an envelope with the student's name and grade.
If you have any immediate questions regarding free or reduced lunch applications, please reach out to Michelle Dawson at (636) 271-1428 or email Michelle at mdawson@mvr3.k12.mo.us.
