Happy Sunday, HS Wildcats!

I hope that you're enjoying the sunshine today - it's nice to see it again, and thanks to Daylight Savings time, we get to enjoy it a little bit longer! (It's worth losing an hour of sleep for me.)

We have a short but BUSY week this week with the FFA Alumni Baked Potato Supper, another FFA Practice Contest, Senior Trip Departure, Life Academy Reality Check, Conferences, keeping kids in classrooms, a Baseball Jamboree, AND A DAY OFF ON FRIDAY! Read all about it in this week's SHS STUDENT WILDCAT ROAR: https://app.smore.com/n/bdm5x9-shs-student-wildcat-roar

Good afternoon, Wildcats! 💜💛 This week, we will be hosting parent/teacher conferences on Thursday afternoon. The Book Fair will also be set up for your to enjoy. We look forward to sharing your student's successes with you! Please be sure to read through the PK-8 Monday Message for all of the latest information: https://app.smore.com/n/bfy5p

Save the date, Slater egg hunters!

REMINDER: Tomorrow is Book Character Day!! Come dressed as your favorite book characters. If you have the book that goes with your costume, please bring it with you for your picture.

Last week was a great week for our Slater choirs. The high school choir went to the CMU Music Festival on Friday and earned a top rating of Exemplary from their festival judge. On Saturday, we had representatives from 5th and 6th grade participate in the WCMMEA 5th and 6th grade honor choirs in Warrensburg at the UCM campus. Great job and congratulations Wildcats!
