This week focuses on the unique contributions of school counselors in helping students thrive by offering support for academic and social-emotional growth. We are so grateful for our amazing school counselor, Ms. Raeker, at Nike Elementary. She is a vital part of our team, works tirelessly to support our students and families, and our students absolutely love her!

Have a great weekend!
Students and staff are invited to help us celebrate by dressing up as the 101 Dalmatians at Nike Elementary School. Spots, pups, and creative outfits are welcome!
We can’t wait to see what you come up with as we celebrate this special day together!




We’d love to see how you’ve been enjoying the snow days! ❄️
Please email nswaller@mvr3.k12.mo.us photos of your family sledding, having snowball fights, building snowmen, or cozying up by the fireplace. We can’t wait to see the fun and memories you’ve been making during this snowy time!

Just a reminder: Below are the cold weather guidelines we follow to determine when it is safe for students to go outside (St. Louis Children’s Hospital):
*10°F or below: Indoors
*10–20°F: 5 minutes outside
*20–32°F: 10–15 minutes outside
*32–90°F: Normal outdoor recess
Thank you for helping keep our students safe, warm, and active! ❄️
To mark the occasion, students tapped into their creativity by building their ideal reading and relaxation spaces out of LEGO bricks. The designs were imaginative, thoughtful, and full of great ideas—we loved seeing them all!
We have one more goal to reach this year: 160,000 minutes by May 11th.
Let’s keep reading and logging those minutes. Let’s go, Nike Scouts!

Good job Nike Artists!





Ms. McPherson’s third grade class wrapped up their Viking Quest with a gallery walk this week! Students rotated through groups, explored each resource they studied, and wrote down important information to show what they learned. It was a fun and interactive way to review their learning!
