Wagner Portrait Group will be at school on October 29th (from 9am to 12pm) to photograph any students who were absent on the original Picture Day, any students who are new to the district, and any students who would like retakes.

If your student is having a retake, please return the entire portrait package (including the insert sheet) to the photographer on retake day. Feel free to attach a note describing what you’d like done differently.

Elementary parents, please let Ms. Knight know via email (knighta@crane.k12.mo.us) if you would like a retake for your student. Yearbook staff will be bringing our Elementary students who were absent over to the camera, and we want to make sure we know about retakes when we pull students from class for pictures. This will keep the day moving with as few interruptions to normal classes as possible, and your assistance in this is greatly appreciated!

As always, please note that the order passwords are different for elementary and junior high / high school.

Instructional Highlight! 🌟

Mrs. Moore’s 1st grade students were hard at work strengthening their phonemic awareness skills through Heggerty! These daily activities help students build a strong foundation in reading by practicing how to hear, identify, and manipulate sounds in words. These foundational skills are an important part of developing confident, successful readers!

Check out the progress! We are incredibly grateful for this awesome group of volunteers who are helping pour the concrete apron and sidewalk at the track! Projects like this take time, but seeing the progress makes it clear that it is well worth the wait! A huge thank-you to everyone giving their time and talents to help make this happen for our Pirates! We are blessed with such a supportive community! 🏴‍☠️
