A big shout-out to our Trap Shooting Team! 🎯

They competed at Ozarks Shooters and our Pirates performed very well. Congratulations to Ian Reel and Madyson Pippin for earning 1st place in their divisions! 🥇

Great job as well to Levi Colgan and Peyton Martin for taking 2nd place in their divisions. 🥈

We’re proud of the hard work, focus, and sportsmanship these athletes continue to show. Way to represent the Pirates!

Tacky tourist day will be tomorrow, dress in your spring break vacation clothes!

Weekly Sports Schedule

I sent this out to parents of VoTech students on Friday, but want to post a reminder that there is no VoTech tomorrow, March 9th even though we have school. Students who attend TRCC need to arrive at school at 11:40. ~Mrs. Mease

Our High School Student Council is excited about our upcoming spring break, so we're taking this week to get ready for it with some spring fever. Tomorrow we will have a PJ day since our clocks made us lose an hour!

Crane Elementary Refrigerator Work - Week 26:
Maverick added his 3-digit by 3-digit subtraction quiz, with some regrouping. He scored a 4 on this quiz.
Jonah completed his #18 morning work, using his best coloring and writing.
Lydia mastered 40+ kindergarten sight words. This is an end of the year goal that she mastered in 3rd Quarter.
Franchezka added her 9s division page to the Fridge Space. She answered 60 division problems in under 3 minutes, and then completed the same number of problems, on the back side of the paper, in less time than the front.
Students, keep up the great work!

Final score! Great season Pirates!! You have a lot to be proud of!

Halftime. Crane down 7.

After the first quarter our Pirates are giving the defending state champs everything they want. We are the home team!!

Looking for a safe, engaging place for your kids during Spring Break? The Boys & Girls Club Crane Unit will be open every day from 7:30 AM–4:00 PM to keep kids active, learning, and having fun while school is out!

Who can attend?
Children in Kindergarten through age 12 are welcome to join.

What will kids do?
Each day will be packed with fun and creativity! Kids will enjoy crafts, music, cooking activities, gaming, and even mini field trips. It’s a great chance to explore new interests, make friends, and create awesome memories during Spring Break.

To keep everyone energized, breakfast, lunch, and a snack will be provided each day.

Best of all, it’s completely FREE!
This is a wonderful opportunity for kids to stay active, keep learning, and have a blast during our school’s Spring Break.

This is a reminder that we have school this Monday, March 9, 2026. Next week is a 5 day school week before we are off for Spring Break!

Mark your calendars! The student council blood drive is coming and you can get free stuff!!! (In addition to saving lives!!)
