On Saturday evening the YMCA presented the Kirksville R-III School District with the Community Partnership award. We are honored to be the recipients of this award. This partnership began 2 years ago to provide a safe, academic, and healthy place for children to go after school until 5:30.
The program continues to grow with approximately 80 students between Kirksville Primary and Ray Miller. It is run by teachers and paras who provide homework help, enrichment activities, crafts, community educational partnership programs, and a healthy snack.
Thank you YMCA and Kirksville R-III for continuing this much needed program for the families of our community!

Safety and cooperation are top of our list for the students and families we serve. To help us help you it is very important that parents who may have joint custody of the children keep the school offices updated on any guardian and emergency contact situations.
The schools strive very hard to ensure students are released only to those persons authorized by you. From time to time legal paperwork determines who those persons can be and it is crucial that school offices are made aware of these and any changes to the documents.
Feel free to contact the school district administration with any questions you may have.
Come join us for the BOGO Book Fair this week!
