A huge thank you to our food service staff for providing delicious Thanksgiving lunches this week! Our students have loved them! 🦃 #OneLiberator

Spent time today visiting our PreK classrooms with Principal Cooper, and wow… our ECLC team is something special. Their patience, energy, and love for our littlest Liberators set the foundation for everything that follows. Gateful for the joy and care they pour into each day!

A great deal of gratitude goes out to Dr. Searsen and the entire Conway Schools team for their help with our recent FFA charter bus accident. We are blessed in Southwest Missouri where we have great neighbors and people who will jump into action to help whenever it is needed!

Congratulations, kiddo! ❤️ What a fantastic experience and opportunity. @NationalFFA @MakaylaMethvin
