From our School Family to Yours


Congratulations!
Mrs. Nancy Stovall, our school nurse, submitted an application and was selected to receive a scholarship to attend the very first Whole-Student Wellness workshop on February 22, 2023. Mrs. Stovall also included Mrs. Walker in the application so the ladies will serve as our wellness team. In addition to the Whole-Student Wellness workshop, the scholarship includes registration for the Coordinated School Health conference.
"Again, congratulations on being selected for this unique opportunity. Several schools submitted compelling applications, and the selection process was a difficult one." ~ Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services
Well done Mrs. Stovall. We appreciate the focus on student health and wellness.
