South students are learning the importance of compliments. Fourth graders in Ms. Wilberding's class created drawings with Mrs. Mansker's kindergarten class. The fourth graders then wrote compliments on the pictures and let the kindergarten students keep them! The kindergarten students then gave the fourth grade students pictures they colored.

Ozark Middle School students and staff are excited about the new storm shelter! Office staff are moving in and students are getting the grand tour. Students and parents should be able to enter through the new front doors next week!

Did you know all of our schools have their own Facebook pages? There are so many cool things happening across our District everyday … and we can’t put all those photos on the District FB page! These are from West, Tiger Paw, South and East.

We’re not going to tell you what’s happening in these photos, but you can find the details on the school's Facebook pages!
