A perfect February match 💘📚 Our 6th graders are loving their Blind Date with a Book—where books are wrapped up and chosen by clues, not covers. Proof that sometimes the best stories are the ones you don’t judge by the cover. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family
We love that our families make Valentine’s Day special! As you plan, please remember that balloons, giant stuffed animals, and glass vases cannot ride the school bus, because they are not safe for bus transportation. Special deliveries may need to be picked up by a parent or guardian.
With Valentine’s Day landing on a Saturday this year, celebrating at home is the easiest option. Thanks for helping us keep school days running smoothly and bus rides safe for everyone! #WeAreSR3

🕵️♀️ 100 Days Smarter — Detective Style! 🕵️♂️
Several of our elementary schools celebrated the 100th day of school last week, and Mrs. Klimek’s 2nd graders at Amazonia took it undercover.
Students wrapped up a 100th Day School Detective project, putting their problem-solving and critical-thinking skills to work. One group was recognized as the class’s top detectives, while the full class participated in cracking the case together.
Learning, teamwork, and a little mystery made for a fun way to celebrate 100 days of growth! #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family #SR3AZES

Can you name five famous Missourians? 👀📚
Mr. Jackson’s students are researching notable Missourians as part of a research writing project—learning how to gather information, take notes, and turn their research into clear, thoughtful writing.
Drop your favorite famous Missourian in the comments!

Every day, people like Mrs. Spencer make SR3 the place we’re proud to call home. Here’s today’s snapshot of our #SR3Family. #SR3FamilySnapshots #SR3Family #WeAreSR3
Ancient Egypt has come to life (and… dried out 👀🍎).
Our 6th graders are diving into Ancient Egyptian history and learning about the mummification process—by putting it to the test themselves. Students carved symbols into apples and followed the steps ancient Egyptians used to preserve pharaohs… just with fruit instead of royalty.
Hands-on learning, historical curiosity, and a few very mummified apples later, this lesson definitely made an impression. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Would you read with a snake? 🐍📖
Would you read with a teacher who cheers you on?
Would you read in the snow, on the way home?
Our students are showing us that, when it comes to reading, any time and any place is the right time. Whether it’s sharing a book with a teacher or squeezing in a few more pages during pickup, the love of reading goes wherever they do. That’s literacy in action. 💛📚 #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family #SR3Reads

☀️ Rise and Shine! It's Coffee Time! ☕️
Our high school coffee shop recently had the opportunity to cater at John Glenn Elementary ☕️💛 And we’ll give you one guess what their favorite part was…
Yep. Cash, the therapy dog, stole the show. 🐾
From serving drinks to spreading smiles, this was a great example of student leadership, community connection, and a reminder that sometimes the best part of the job has four legs and a wagging tail. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Genetics can be unpredictable and wild… and that’s kind of the point 🧬
Our high school bio students rolled dice to create DNA sequences, carried those traits through transcription and translation, and designed monsters based on the results. No two outcomes were the same—just like real genetics. #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family

Coincidence or creative writing magic? ❄️
Mrs. Miller’s 6th graders wrote snow-themed stories about being stuck in snow globes… and winter showed up right on cue. We’re not making any accusations, but the timing is impressive. 😉 #WeAreSR3 #SR3Family
