Here are a few more pictures of our students enjoying the new Table Rock Career Center!
Yesterday, Wednesday, January 23, 2025, Dr. Rogers, Mrs. Mease, and Mrs. Mullins had the privilege of attending the official ribbon cutting and open house at the new Table Rock Career Center. As always, the best part was getting to see our students thrive. An additional bonus was learning that one of Crane R-III's former students, Mr. Alex Estes with DeWitt and Associates Inc, was the Project Superintendent, overseeing the entire build of TRCC from beginning to end. If that's not coming full circle, I don't know what is! It is awesome to see our students and former students doing great things!

That's a big win for our Lady Pirates against Mt. Vernon tonight. We will play Ash Grove at 7:30 on Thursday night in the Lady Comet Classic.

Our Lady Pirates are up by 22 points at halftime in the first round of the Lady Comet Classic against Mt. Vernon.
Each member of our Crane Yearbook staff submitted photos to Branson Tri-Lakes News for a winter photography contest. Two freshmen on the staff, Selena Godfrey and Avery McMullen, are taking home the prizes for winner and runner-up in the 14-15 year old category! Please congratulate these ladies if you get the chance; they worked hard to take and select their best quality photos for submission!
Just a reminder that you must sign up by Jan. 28th if you would like to take the ACT in March.
Parents/Guardians of 10th, 11th, and/or 12th grade students: In an effort to help any college-bound student reach their post-secondary goals, we will be offering the opportunity for 10th-12th grade Crane students to take the ACT at Crane High School during the school day. This will take place on March 11, 2025. The cost for the test is $54, a savings of $11 off the regular price. It is the policy of Crane R-III High School to reimburse the ACT test-taking fee to those students who, on their first attempt, score at or above the most recent Missouri State Average score on the ACT test. Crane High School will also, on subsequent attempts, reimburse the fee if a student improves upon their best score. Some advantages of taking the ACT at school during the day: 1. You do not need to find transportation to an ACT location on a Saturday. 2. The location is guaranteed. They won't close the site due to low numbers like they can for National testing. 3. It is cheaper than a National test ($54 compared to $65 for the exact same test) 4. You can improve your score the more times you take the ACT. Most colleges accept super scores. Your superscore is the average of your best scores from each subject from multiple test attempts. If you would like your student to participate in this testing opportunity, please complete the attached form (https://forms.gle/TGti6VdgxQ2rBec87) and pay your $54 fee to the high school office by January 28th. If you have questions, contact Mrs. Mullins at mullinsm@crane.k12.mo.us or call 417-723-5300 ext 718.
If your child is interested in being on the fishing team and would like more information, there is an informational meeting on Tuesday, January 28th in the Jr High Gym at 6:00 pm. See the attached flyer for contact information if you aren't able to make it to the meeting.

This space has been created for students to post work, of any subject, they are super proud of and put their best effort into completing.
If you have any school appropriate refrigerator magnets you would like to donate for students to choose from to display their work, any donations would be greatly appreciated.
There WILL be VoTech at Table Rock Career Center tomorrow even if Reeds Spring is not able to have school. The water is working at TRCC.
Mrs. Lawson's preschool class had a blast exploring colors and practicing fine motor skills! Using snow from the playground, our students took pipettes filled with colored water and carefully dropped it onto the snow. This fun activity helped them identify different colors, mix them together, and observe how new colors are created! It was a wonderful way for them to engage in hands-on learning while also developing their coordination.
Congratulations to our High School English teacher, Yearbook sponsor, and Jr Class co-sponsor, Ms. Alyssa Knight, for being selected as our January Teacher of the Month! We love having you at Crane and appreciate all you do, Ms. Knight!
There will be no VoTech tomorrow. Reeds Spring is having water issues. VoTech students need to be at school by 11:40.
