Attention parents of 7th and 11th graders, your child will need Vaccine updates in order to attend school next year. We will be holding a vaccine clinic, with the assistance of Tri County Department of Health, on April 15th @ 1pm. If you want your child to receive their immunizations at school a signed consent form is required. These forms can be picked up at the Albany R3 High School office. If you have any questions regarding this topic please reach out to Nurse Karri.

VEG Elementary had their assembly this afternoon to announce the winner of the Kiss a Pig Contest for Pennies for Patients. Mrs. Constant was the lucky winner to kiss a pig! Our second and third place winners, Mrs. Anthony and Mrs. Garland, also ended up kissing the pig too. The students loved this contest and the pig! Thank you to Curtis and Courtney Smith for allowing us to use your pig for this fun contest.

Also, thank you everyone for donating to Pennies for Patients! An official total will be announced on Tuesday.

Today, Mrs. Nichols along with many students had the opportunity to make Signature Sodas for those that had purchased them for Pennies for Patients. Students and staff enjoyed them!

We've had a blast with the dress up days for Pennies for Patients the last two weeks! Students at VEG Elementary had the opportunity to purchase tattoos yesterday for teachers to wear today. Our teachers even posed for a few pictures!

Preschool has been learning all about birds this past week! Today, Officer Brandon Lyddon from the Missouri Department of Conservation visited our classroom to teach the students how different birds build their nests. The kids had so much fun listening as he explained how each type of bird makes its own unique nest. To wrap up the visit, the students split into three groups and worked together to build their own bird nests. They even had to use forks as their “feet” to build the nests, which helped them understand how tricky it can be for birds to gather and arrange materials without using hands! Fun was had by all, and we are so thankful for this hands-on learning opportunity! 🐦🪺
