Cooking by the Numbers!![]()
Today we mixed math with a little fun in the kitchen as a hands-on way to review the concepts we’ve learned all year. It’s so important for students to see how math connects to real-life situations and cooking is the perfect way to bring those skills to life!![]()
Our 4th graders made homemade brownies, 5th grade whipped up a delicious chocolate chip cookie dough dip, and 6th grade prepared a crowd-favorite buffalo chicken dip. We loved sharing our creations with staff and students around the building. It truly made the day extra special!![]()
Mrs. McFadden especially enjoyed cooking alongside her students and watching them apply their math skills in such a fun and meaningful way. 🐯💛🖤
What a FUN day at school! ![]()

Today, our 4th, 5th, and 6th graders had an unforgettable spring field trip to Mark Twain Cave in Hannibal!![]()
Students had a blast exploring the cave while learning how it was discovered and what makes it such a unique natural wonder. They were especially excited to hear how Samuel Clemens (better known as Mark Twain) used the cave as inspiration for his famous stories. Along the way, they spotted fascinating rock formations like stalactites and learned how they form over time.![]()
What made the experience even more exciting is that back in the science classroom, students have been creating their own “stalactites” this past week using baking soda and Epsom salt! As the water in their mixtures slowly evaporates, it leaves behind tiny mineral crystals that build up and grow downward, just like real stalactites form in caves when mineral-rich water drips from the ceiling over many, many years. The students were extra excited to see the real formations in person!![]()
It was the perfect mix of fun and education, and a great way to bring science and history to life outside the classroom!
Exciting news! The MU-3 helicopter will be making an appearance at our Things That Go Night this evening! ![]()
They plan to land at the school around 5:30 p.m. and take off back to base around 6-6:15 p.m.
We are proud to share that our FCCLA Chapter President, Hannah Keiser, attended FCCLA’s Legislative Shadowing event in Jefferson City on Wednesday, April 22.![]()
Accompanied by FCCLA Advisor Mrs. Green, Hannah had the opportunity to shadow State Representative Tim Taylor, attend a Missouri House session and gain a firsthand look at the legislative process while touring the Capitol. This experience allowed her to see how decisions are made and better understand how government impacts our communities, families and future careers.![]()
FCCLA’s Legislative Shadowing program gives students interested in leadership and public service the chance to connect what they are learning in the classroom to real-world experiences.![]()
What a special way to wrap up her FCCLA career. We are so proud to call Hannah one of ours and cannot wait to watch her do great things.
Senior Decision Day will take place on Friday, May 1st, at 11:00 a.m. Family and community members are invited to attend this special event. We look forward to celebrating The Class of 2026!

There were two winners selected the first place winner was Dawson Jolliffe and the second place winner was Wes Simms. Each winner received a gift certificate to deposit in a new or existing savings account. We appreciate the bank for putting on this program.

What a FUN night at our Elementary Family Science Night! ![]()
Families had a blast exploring science together by visiting each hands-on station! Students got to make erupting volcanoes, dig for fossils and gemstones, examine rocks and minerals, build marshmallow towers to test if they could withstand an “earthquake,” see erosion in action, create the layers of the Earth using cookies and candy, and even enjoy some “sand and dirt” (pudding and cookies, of course!).![]()
It was so great to see our students thinking like scientists by asking questions, making predictions, experimenting, and learning through discovery. Nights like this show that science isn’t just something we read about in a textbook. It’s something we can see, touch, and experience all around us every day!![]()
Thank you to all the families who came out to support our students and to everyone who helped make this night such a success. We loved sharing the excitement of science with our school community!
Congrats to Beau Linneman on being selected to play in the Missouri 8 Man Football Coaches Association All Star game! Beau is one of 50 seniors in the state to be selected for this and will be representing Team Red who is being coached by Jon Adwell, Dan Collins, Jordan Tyler, and Shane Hilton. At this All Star game, Beau will travel to Missouri Western State University where he'll practice for a couple of days with his team before playing in the All Star game on May 30th. Beau might be our first Thunder player to participate in this game. Ask anyone who's put on the pads, and they'll tell you to enjoy every chance you get to play because once it is over, you don't get that opportunity again. We'd love to get a group together to watch Beau put the pads on one last time so if any of our boys are interested in going, we can look into getting a bus or carpooling. More details to come later. Once again... Congrats Beau!![]()
