Greetings, Families!

Here's the news for this short week of school:

  • This week's challenge words will be tallest and anything.
  • Since the Nixa boys basketball team won on Saturday, the team will play at the state basketball semi-finals in Columbia, MO on Thursday, March 8.  Because of that, the district will be having a half-day of classes on Thursday, March 8 with regular "half-day" dismissal times of 11:30 a.m. for grades 5-12 and 12:30 p.m. for grades K-4. 
  • XLT will have a half day "Kids' Day Off" on Thursday, March 8 at High Pointe Elementary.Cost is $14 for non-XLT children & FREE for current XLT families. Registration begins 6:30 Monday morning to noon Wednesday. You MUST register to attend. Children will be transported to High Pointe from their elementary school.
  • Please save the date!  Our first grade poetry program will be Thursday, April 19th.  Invitations will be coming home soon!
  • Everyone is welcome to join the 5K Fun Run Saturday, March 17 at 8:00 a.m.  We'll be starting at the Nixa High School football field.  I would love to run with my first graders, so if anyone wants to join me, let me know and we can meet up and run together!
