Dexter, Missouri - Each year the Dexter High School Future Business Leaders of America organize a Mac & Cheese Drive for the Stoddard County Gospel Mission.
The club sponsored a competition among DHS first period classes to see which could donate the most boxes of Macaroni and Cheese.
Teachers started the competition by donating two cases each and earning the privilege to wear jeans before Thanksgiving.
Mr. James Myers' classroom collected the most boxes based on an average of the number of students in each teacher's first period class and were awarded a special Doughnut party!
In total, 1,623 boxes were collected and will join the other high school donations for the Dexter School "Stuff a Bus" campaign.
This was Sharon Guy's first year as the sponsor of the FBLA.
Bloomfield, Missouri - Allison Statler is well known in the area for her excellent skills at playing the violin, but on Saturday she made history at Bloomfield Schools when she earned All-State Honors with her flute. Statler is the first student in the history of the Bloomfield Band Department to make the Missouri High School All-State Band.
Also this year Gabriel Waters made Honorable Mention on Bass Clarinet.
On December 3, 2016 more than 1,400 students from across Missouri met at Hickman High School in Columbia to audition for the honor of participating in the top band in the state.
Only 110 students are accepted into this elite ensemble.
The band will meet, rehearse, and perform at the Missouri Music Educators Association Conference held January 25 through January 28, 2017 at Tan-Tar-A Resort, Lake of the Ozarks.
Poplar Bluff, Missouri - Poplar Bluff High School students in need of an article of clothing, a personal hygiene product or a classroom supply now have a discrete place to go directly on campus to seek relief.
The Giving Closet has been established this academic year in the library. The operation is managed by Librarian Marci Priest, who maintains inventory through donations and receives help stocking shelves from student volunteers.
School board member Alana Robertson, who also serves on the Bright Futures advisory, read about the Little Bit Foundation, a cost-free boutique for poverty-stricken schools in St. Louis. She was able to further gather information from a relative at an educational institution in Florida with a comparable operation.
“It’s the whole premise of Bright Futures and I thought, ‘How wonderful if we can do something similar,’ because we all have kids that need our help,” Robertson said. The mission of Bright Futures is to help meet the basic needs of students through community partnerships with the business sector, human service agencies, faith-based organizations and parent groups.
The high school site council for the nonprofit took its first tour of the Giving Closet on Wednesday, Nov. 25. While discussions began last school year, plans for full implementation were put on hold until a designated space was made available at the new Oak Grove facility.
“In the past (lacking an element of anonymity) might have prevented us from meeting the needs of a child who may not want to come to school because they would freeze to death with no coat, or they don’t want their stomach growling until lunch because they didn’t eat supper, or they don’t have clean clothes,” R-I Attendance Officer Misty Dodson explained. “For a child to be able to just walk in and say, ‘I need this,’ cuts down on the potential negative feeling they may have in regard to their circumstances.”
Items presently in demand, according to overseers, include gently worn winter gear appropriate for high school students, undergarments and feminine products. For more information, contact the high school directly at 573-785-6471, or message the Bright Futures Poplar Bluff page on Facebook.
