Graduation is July 26th. It will be live streamed for those without an entry ticket.
Just a reminder: All athletes need a current physical on file before fall sports practices start. Physicals are now good for two years. To check your child's last physical date, log on to your Family ID account. Athletes in need of a physical may call one of our local clinics for an appointment. NEMO Health Council 660.397.3517 or Edina Medical Clinic 660.460.8140.
The Lady Eagles softball team will be hosting a camp July 27-29. It is open to incoming grades 6-8. Please see the attached form and the COVID-19 liability waiver for more details. Please sign both and turn them in on the first day of camp. Both forms must be turned in before student athletes can participate in camp! I will have extra forms the first day of camp for those unable to print them. We look forward to seeing all of you!
Coach Dale
Just a reminder Tuesday, June 30 is the last day of meal delivery. Have a great summer!

Under the Families First Coronavirus Response Act of 2020, families that qualify for free or reduced lunch at school may be eligible for a new benefit of up to $302 per child (Pre-Kindergarten – Grade 12), known as the Pandemic Electronic Benefits Transfer (P-EBT) program, to help with food costs while students continue to learn at home.
The benefits include:
· $57 for March
· $125 for April
· $120 for May
If you are eligible, the benefit months you are eligible for will be loaded onto an Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card. If you received Food Stamp (SNAP) benefits in March, DO NOT apply for these new/additional benefits. The full $302 will automatically be loaded to your existing EBT card. If you need more information on SNAP, visit https://mydss.mo.gov/covid-food-stamp-info .
If you did not receive Food Stamp (SNAP) benefits in March, you must apply for this benefit and complete all sections of the application. An individual child is also eligible for the new benefit if the child was attending a school that participates in Community Eligibility Provision (CEP), Provision 2, or Provision 3 during the unanticipated school closure. If you are not sure your child attended an eligible school, you should contact the school district the child attends before you apply. If you do not want to receive this benefit, you do not need to apply. To find out if you may be eligible, please see Attachment A.
Resource Parents qualify to receive P-EBT, as Foster Care children receive free lunch. If you are a Resource Parent who wants to receive these benefits, you will also need to complete the application.
Select one of the following ways to apply:
· Complete the online application at EmergencyMealSurvey.com/MO
· Scan your completed and signed application, then email it to: FoodandNutritionServices@dese.mo.gov
