📚🐄 Dairy Day at School! 🐄📚 Today, our Kindergarten through 4th grade students had a unique and exciting experience with the Mobile Dairy Classroom! They got to learn all about dairy products—where they come from, how they're made, and why they're important for our health. The kids were thrilled to meet a real dairy cow and see firsthand how milk is collected. It was a fun-filled day full of learning, and we're grateful to the Mobile Dairy Classroom team for visiting us and sharing their knowledge.

🌟 It's Teacher and Staff Appreciation Week! 🌟 Let's give a huge shout-out to all the incredible teachers and staff members who dedicate themselves to shaping our future.

📚 Southern Boone Scholar Bowl Team Competes at National Championship in Chicago 🌟 The Southern Boone Varsity Scholar Bowl Team had a fantastic experience at the NAQT Small Schools National Championship tournament in Chicago this past weekend. The team put up a strong fight in the preliminary rounds, earning four wins and six losses. Although they did not advance to the semi-finals, it's worth noting that two of their losses were against teams that ended up in the top 10 overall. A special shoutout goes to sophomore Max Rice, who was named a "Rising Star" for the second consecutive year! He ranked as the third highest scorer among all freshman and sophomores in the tournament, and the 8th highest scorer from Missouri, earning recognition from the Missouri Quiz Bowl Alliance. The team was led by senior captain Zoe Anderson Clark, with sophomores Max Rice, Josie Lambiotte, Trenton John, and alternates sophomore Taylor Crandall and freshman Kerington Condron. They not only showcased their academic talents but also enjoyed the camaraderie with other teams and even got to explore a bit of Chicago during the trip. Great job, team! We're so proud of you and can't wait to see what you achieve next school year! Keep up the hard work! 💪🧠
