Bernie, Missouri – Each month Mrs. Summer McGowan teaches a Guidance Counseling session at Bernie Public Schools for each class and the lesson stems from our character trait of the month.
The students are supposed to take what they learn from the character trait instruction and apply it to their daily lives in how they treat others and make decisions.
At the end of the month, each teacher gets to nominate one student from their classroom they felt most consistently displayed the character trait of the month. The students are recognized for their accomplishment and are given a character trait pencil.
December character trait was CARING!
December Caring students were from left to right (front row) Cane Hobgood, Luci Cluck, Josiah Copeland, Katelyn McKuin, and Tatum Baxter.

Missouri - As students get back to class after the new year, teachers are reminded the deadline for entries in the 2015 International Aviation Art Contest is just a few weeks away. Get out your art supplies and create a piece capturing the excitement of looping and spinning planes, diving hang gliders and colorful hot air balloons. Young people throughout Missouri are invited to illustrate the competition aviation events of the 2015 FAI World Air Games in Dubai, UAE, in the 2015 International Aviation Art Contest.
Sponsored by several national and international organizations and supported by the Missouri Department of Transportation, the contest inspires youth to explore aeronautics, engineering and science as they illustrate the theme, "World Air Games."
Children between the ages of 6 and 17 can participate. Entries are judged in three age classes for creative use of the theme. Entries from Missouri youth will be evaluated by MoDOT employees. The winners will advance to national and possible international levels of the contest.
