ELECTION NEWS

PENNIES FOR PATIENTS

 

Brashear Schools will be participating in the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society’s (LLS) Pennies for Patients program  February 4 through February 22.  This service learning program gives students the unique experience of working together to help raise awareness and funds in honor of thousands of children and adults fighting against blood cancers!


We are asking that everyone (students, faculty, parents, alumni, etc.) at Brashear Schools join in this effort of raising awareness and collecting funds to benefit the mission of LLS:  to find cures for blood cancers and to improve the quality of life for patients and their families.  Together we can reach our goal of $600!

 

DISTRICT REPORT CARD AVAILABLE

 

State law (Section 160.522, RSMo) requires the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education to publish an annual “report card” about each school district, each school building, and each charter school in the state.  The reports are designed to satisfy state and federal requirements for the disclosure of statistics about students, staff, finances, academic achievement, and other indicators.  The information is compiled from data   reported to the Department by local school districts.

The 2018 district report card is now available at:  https://apps.dese.mo.gov/MCDS/home.aspx.  Simply Locate District Adair Co. R-II - 001092, select Report Card from the left hand menu, and then click on District Report Card.  School year 2018 should already be populated.

If you would like a copy of this report card, contact the district office at 323-5272.
