Dexter, Missouri - Have you noticed the new marquee on the corner of Grant Street and One Mile Road next to Southwest Elementary School? The sign was recently installed and will be up and running soon.
This marquee was included with the purchase of the new Football Scoreboard which was made possible from the following sponsors: Gill Group, Bank of Advance, Faurecia, First Midwest Bank, SoutheastHEALTH of Stoddard County, Young Real Estate LLC, Legacy, One Mile Smile, State Farm Insurance, Chris Brannan, Williams Moving Company, Dexter Family Eye Care and On The Go.
The LED marquee will be used to broadcast district wide information to the public to hopefully have more involvement in school functions and activities.
"I feel we do an excellent job of broadcasting what is going on in our schools but this will be another avenue of communication and also serve as a reminder to the numerous parents and community members who travel this intersection daily," according to Mitch Wood, Dexter Public School Superintendent.
