Dear parents we want you to know that we got to Prairie Home and there was thunder and lightning. We had to bring all of our kiddos back home. We will go swimming this afternoon if it stops raining and the weather is clear. If not we will have a popcorn movie day this afternoon for the kids instead. Thanks so much and please don't hesitate to call if you have questions. Safety, as always, is our highest priority.

It is an early out day. Students are out at noon. We will have a short award ceremony at 10 AM for students who have increased their math and/or reading scores during the summer school term, and for those with perfect attendance. Parents are welcome to attend, eat lunch with your student, and enjoy an ice cream sundae. Please let us know in advance if you intend to eat lunch with your student as we will need lunch count by Wednesday. Thank you for letting us teach your child. Summer school has been a pleasure.

This is a reminder that the summer school students will be taking a train ride tomorrow. They will load the train in Sedalia at 10:29 AM and ride the train to Jefferson City.
