📚✨ Special Book Blast Announcement! ✨📚
Today I had the pleasure of wrapping up our Book Blast event, and I have some very exciting news to share!
🎉 EVERY Kingsville Elementary student will receive at least TWO brand-new books — regardless of participation!
📦 That’s right — 500 books will be delivered to our elementary students!
🎁 We also have 29 students earning additional prizes with their books!
🏫 Plus, our entire elementary earned a $407 shopping spree for even more books and supplies!
🛍️ And a big congratulations to Mrs. Groves and Mrs. Moody, who each earned a $100 shopping spree for their classrooms!
💎 And don’t forget — our EPIC Treasure Chest winner will be announced on Book Delivery Day!
Book deliveries will arrive shortly after Thanksgiving break, and we absolutely cannot wait to see the students’ faces when they receive them. This is truly one of the most joyful events of the year.
Thank you ALL for your incredible support and generosity — you help make these moments possible! 💛📖

🎓💥 SENIORS ON THE MOVE! 💥🎓
This Tuesday was one for the books! Our amazing seniors took a trip to the University of Central Missouri for a campus visit — soaking up all that college inspo and dreaming big. 🏫✨
Then it was time to unwind and turn up the fun at Alley Cats! 🎳🍔 Between strikes, spares, and some seriously good food, healthy competition, laughter echoed, and memories were made.
We love seeing our seniors explore their futures and live in the moment. Keep shining, Class of 2025 — this year is YOURS! 🌟
