There are rumors going around about active shooter at our school district. That information is false. There was a situation that was handled by high school principal yesterday, and the issue was resolved. Everyone at the school is safe!

We hope you all have a great 1st weekend of fall. Today our 1st progress reports were sent home with students. Many of our classes have begun fun fall units. Also today all of our Pk - 1st classes had Johnny Appleseed visit as a guest reader. Have a fantastic weekend and go Wildcats!

A big thank you to our friends at Warsaw Orscheln Farm & Home for donating flags to our second grade students at South Elementary. They enjoyed learning about symbols of America in our social studies unit and loved receiving their very own American flags. #WildcatTraditionPrideExcellence

Saturday's game on 8/27 vs KC Central has been canceled. KC Central does not have enough eligible players (per MSHSAA mandatory 14 practices) to participate in Saturday's game. We are currently trying to find an opponent, but with it being Week 1 this is very difficult.
