Congratulations to Jaylee for being this week's Warrior Wednesday Spotlight! Jaylee is always a leader in our classroom and role model. She is always helping others, doing things without being asked, and always works hard on her assignments! Way to go Jaylee!
Students in Ms. Smith's 2nd grade class participated in a paint n' sip on Friday. So many creative little artists.
Coleman Elementary's Counselor teamed up with PHS DECA to support and inspire students in preparation for state testing. PHS students created a poem with affirmations focused on prioritizing sleep, healthy eating, & self-regulation, and then used their skills and the program's equipment to press the design onto pillowcases. An assembly was held, complete with a few different Survivor-like challenges that symbolized these priorities, and the uplifting pillowcases were gifted to each 3rd & 4th grader afterwards. Check out the "Thriver" assembly fun! #MVNation #GrowingTogether
4th Grade students had a wonderful time visiting the St. Louis Arch and Museum last week. Before traveling to the top, students learned about the Gateway to the West, the American frontier, and local St. Louis history. For some, this was their first trip in the Arch. So glad everyone had a good time!
Teacher & Staff Appreciation Week is coming! Starting Monday, let's take a moment to thank the hardworking heart of #MVNation – our teachers and staff. A little kindness goes a long way!
Coleman Elementary KDG students in Ms. Jones' class recently created a kindness garden to spread positivity. Visitors may take a student-decorated rock when they need their spirits lifted or they may add to the garden & spread kindness to others! #MVNation #GrowingTogether
It was a fun time at Culver's in Eureka last night. Families, students, and staff enjoyed working and delivering food to customers. Thank you to everyone who came and to Culver's for your help and generous donation.

Coleman Elementary Kindergarten & 1st grade students had a special guest reader this week. Brooke Mizner, former Coleman student & current PHS Junior, came to read her award-winning story, "Mr. Prickles and Whiskers: An Unlikely Friendship." Brooke attends Four Rivers and is enrolled in the Education Rising Program, where she is currently studying to be a school teacher. The story that she wrote and illustrated was entered into the Ed-Rising State Competition in March, and she won first place. This summer, Brooke will travel to Florida, where her book will compete at the National Level. Congratulations Brooke on your great success. You should be very proud, and #MVNation is proud of you! #GrowingTogether

Weeks ago, several students in Mrs. Signaigo's class wrote persuasive letters to our principal Dr. Quanz. Asking him to come teach their class a lesson. They must have been very persuasive.

📢 Prop M for MVR-III – No Tax Increase Bond 📢 is on the April 8th ballot and will allow MVR-III to build a net zero ready school, lowering energy costs and serving as an educational tool to teach students about sustainability practices, all while potentially saving money on utility bills to be allocated to other facilities across the district:
🧱Like the 2021 Zitzman addition, the new middle school would be built with ICF (Insulated Concrete Form) walls that provide superior energy efficiency and increased strength & durability.
⬇️The Zitzman addition is using 39% less energy per square foot than the national average for K-12 school buildings.
⚡Energy usage at ZE is 34% less than the previous structure, which is a direct energy cost savings to MVR-III!
🗳️ Prop M is a NO Tax Increase investment in our students and schools. Remember to Vote Tomorrow! #MVNation #MovingForwardTogether
This week, the Coleman Library hosted a Reading Party for 18 of our 3rd and 4th graders. To earn an invitation, students had to read and submit a detailed book review for four Denny O'Neil Graphic Novel Nominee books and/or four Mark Twain Nominee books. These books are selected annually by the Missouri Association of School Librarians. Great work Coleman Warriors!
📢 Prop M for MVR-III – No Tax Increase Bond 📢 is on the April 8th ballot and will bring exciting improvements for our students, including:
🏫 A New Middle School – A brand-new 7th-8th grade school will be built on the Pacific High School campus
🔄 Reimagined Learning Spaces – Students in grades 5 & 6 students will move to the current Riverbend School
🚀 Maximizing Usage of District Facilities – New learning space for Alternative Program students and additional office/storage space at Pacific Intermediate
🗳️ Vote on April 8th (or now with No Excuse Absentee Voting). Prop M is a NO Tax Increase investment in our students and schools!
