Special School Board Meeting
Monday, 12/20/2021 at 5:30 p.m.
Agenda Link: https://meeting.sparqdata.com/Public/Organization/2185


Rickard's Kindergarten and 4th Grade classes worked together to decorate gingerbread houses on Tuesday. The students frosted and placed a multitude of decorations onto their houses and created wintry scenes complete with teddy graham snow angels and Santa's. And no gingerbread decorating would be complete without sneaking in a few treats to taste! 🍬🍭





A message from the Director of Student Services and the Interim Superintendent.


Last week the students at Missouri Ridge learned about St. Nicholas Day.
St. Nicholas day is on December 6th every year, and traditionally, children in Europe leave their shoes out for St. Nicholas to fill with treats, and in many countries, he is known to leave oranges for children.
Thank you to Cashwise Foods for donating the oranges!
