We were excited to welcome two community leaders to visit with our students today — Bob Corbin, Mayor of LaGrange, and John Roach, City Administrator. They met with students to talk about concerns students have noticed in their community and how citizens can work together to address them. Our students shared ideas and worked through the civic process of identifying problems and thinking through solutions. Students came up with some great ideas, including organizing a community trash clean-up day and helping meet the needs of the local Blessing Box. They were also invited to attend an upcoming city council meeting to continue the conversation and see local government in action. We are incredibly grateful to Mayor Corbin and Mr. Roach for taking time to come to our school, listen to students, and partner with them in making their community better. Experiences like this show students that their voices matter and that civic engagement starts right where they live!

We were excited to welcome Jason Vaughn to visit with our students this week! Jason spoke with classes about his role as a conservation agent with the Missouri Department of Conservation and how that work serves our community. Students learned how conservation officers help protect Missouri’s natural resources and keep our parks, waterways, and roadways safe and clean. He also took time to meet with a small group of students who are working on their Civics Action Projects. During the interview, students asked questions about conservation, keeping Missouri parks clean, and the role citizens can play in caring for our natural spaces. We appreciate Jason taking the time to share his knowledge and help students see civic leadership in action. Experiences like this help students better understand how they can make a positive impact in their communities!

Mrs. Lyon's class completed a book challenge for Read Across America Day. Here are our winners!

During National Civics Week, our students had the opportunity to hear from our Lewis County Sheriff, David Parrish, who shared about his work as a civic leader and how students can partner with local law enforcement to support their communities.

A small group of students also interviewed him, asking thoughtful questions about concerns they see in their communities. This experience allowed students to practice our durable skills of communication and critical thinking while learning how civic engagement makes a difference.

Thank you to the Lewis County Sheriff for visiting and speaking with our students!

Happy Birthday to Coach Darron Jarvis from the Highland Softball family!
