Ever flown in an Air National Guard C-130? Yesterday, eight senior Savage Battalion JROTC cadets had the opportunity to travel the local airspace, stand in the cockpit, and enjoy the beautiful Missouri landscape from the blue skies. A big thank you to the 139th Airlift Wing and Lafayette HS Senior Army Instructor Lt. Col. Trent Loucks!

Some of the most important work in our district happens behind the scenes—but you feel the impact of it everywhere.
From the front office to the cafeteria, from tech support to student support services, and the many roles that keep things running smoothly, our support staff are the steady hands that hold it all together.
When things work well, it’s because of you.
We appreciate everything you do for our students and our schools. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Every school has those people who just get it.
The ones who know when to push, when to pause, and when a student needs a little extra encouragement. The ones who celebrate the small wins, adjust on the fly, and show up ready to do it all again the next day.
Our teachers and paras are at the heart of that work—and our students are better because of it.
And for those who continue that work long after the final bell—coaching, sponsoring, and showing up for students in a whole different way—we see you too.
If you see a teacher or para today, take a moment to say thank you. It matters more than you know. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Drop a comment, send us a message, or simply take a moment to tell them in person.
Let’s make sure our staff feels the appreciation all week long. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Our U.S. History classes recently celebrated Andrew County Government Day with a visit to the Andrew County Jail and Andrew County Courthouse.
Throughout the day, students had the chance to learn more about how local government works by hearing directly from the people who serve our community each day. From touring offices and court spaces to seeing how records are preserved and how county services operate, this was a great hands-on learning experience for our students.
Thank you to everyone in Andrew County who helped make this day possible and took time to share with our students. We appreciate the opportunity to connect classroom learning to the work happening right here in our community.
And of course, no trip to the square in Savannah is complete without a stop at Savage Nutrition. 💛 #SR3Family #WeAreSR3

What does it mean to be part of JROTC at Savannah High School?
For our students, it’s about leadership, service, and stepping up when it matters most.
In its very first year, the Savage Battalion has already made a strong impact—supporting school events, serving the community, and building skills that will last well beyond high school.
At a recent JROTC Night, Cadet Sergeant Codi Barsh shared how the program has helped her discover confidence, discipline, and what it truly means to lead.

Recently, Ms. Zahnd’s students welcomed Jessica Poush from The Nature Conservancy at Dunn Ranch for a closer look at prairie ecosystems and Missouri native prairie plants.
Students learned about 12 seed species collected from Dunn Ranch in Hatfield, Missouri, and then turned that learning into a hands-on research project of their own. They created a hypothesis, wrote out their procedure, and planted seeds to study germination rates across different prairie species.
Now comes the fun part—tracking their data each day and watching what grows. Even better, students will be able to take their plants home at the end of the year. #SR3Family #WeAreSR3
