March is National Kidney Month, and the Pacific Area 1335 Knights of Columbus made a $1,000 donation to the Alexavier’s Kidney Transplant Journey. Alexavier is a Riverbend student that received a new kidney on New Year’s Day 2024.

This past week, Coleman, Robertsville, and Zitzman Elementary students received a visit from children's author and illustrator David Biedrzycki. He is the creator of many popular picture books, one of which is a current Show-Me Award nominee for the 2023-24 school year, Invasion the Unicorns. He spoke to the students about starting with ideas and how creativity can turn those concepts into books. His presentation was a perfect blend of humor, entertainment, inspiration, and education of the book design process. He shared his passion for art and creativity with the students. Students were thrilled to listen to him read his latest book, Artificial Intelligence, which will be coming out in the fall of 2024. Students even got to watch him illustrate a picture especially for their school! #MVNation
