We are so excited to partner with Four Rivers Dental Team this school year!

Through this partnership, students will have the opportunity to receive dental care right here at school, making it easier for families to get their children the dental services they need without having to miss as much school. This program helps connect students with dental screenings, preventive care, and other dental services right at school!

If you’re interested in signing your child up for this program, forms will be available at our Back to School Festival tomorrow from 10 AM–3 PM. You can also pick up a form at your child’s school office or during Open House.

We are so excited to see everyone and kick off another great school year!

Appreciation Luncheon-- As we prepare to welcome our students and staff back for another amazing school year, we want to give a huge THANK YOU to our incredible maintenance and custodial teams across the Crawford County R-II School District! Behind every clean classroom, freshly waxed floor, organized hallway, and welcoming building are dedicated individuals who have spent countless hours this summer making sure our schools are safe, clean, and ready for learning. This hard work often happens behind the scenes, but the impact is seen and appreciated by every student, staff member, and family who walks through our doors. Thank you for your commitment and countless hours of preparation. We couldn’t do it without you!

The Missouri Assessment Program (MAP) and End-of-Course (EOC) exams are state-required assessments developed under Senate Bill 380, also known as the "Outstanding Schools Act" of 1993. This legislation directed the Missouri State Board of Education to adopt academic performance standards that define the knowledge, skills, and competencies students need to progress through Missouri’s public education system, graduate from high school, and be prepared for college or the workforce.

Each year, school districts are required to communicate with families about how and when assessment results will be shared. This year, Individual Score Reports (ISRs) for MAP and EOC assessments will be sent home with students on Friday, September 4, 2026.

If you have questions about ISRs or the assessment process, please contact your building counselor for support.
