Dear Parent/Guardian:
Your district is taking part in the Missouri School Climate and Culture Survey. Results from this survey will be used as part of the school improvement review during the 2024-2025 academic year. As part of this process, parents, students, and school employees are asked to voluntarily answer surveys regarding programs and services available to students. Please take a few minutes to answer the survey at the link provided. Responses from all parents will be anonymously summarized and will become part of a report for the school district. The school district will use this report in the development of school improvement efforts. If you have more than one child in school, you will receive more than one survey link. Please complete a survey for each individual child. Do not complete one survey for multiple children. The surveys will be processed so that school officials receive reports about each building in the district. The questionnaires contain demographic and opinion questions. You have the option not to respond to any item or not to complete a survey at all. Thank you for your help. Follow this link to the Survey: https://missouri.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_eWDBrKoAtMm1TvM Access code for MIAMI ELEM.: 0971164020 |

House Program
By now, I’m sure you have noticed the food pantry boxes located at the school and community center parking lot. If you have not, please go take a look at them. These are the results of our students hard work and dedication to help members of our community.
In the 2019- 2020 school year, the teachers at Miami Middle School started an incentive program called the “House Program.” Students had the opportunity to learn about character qualities such as: empathy, resiliency, assertiveness, compassion, respect, trust, honesty, and integrity. Students worked together as a team to complete different activities and earn points for demonstrating the behaviors in the classroom. Their project for the compassion month was to develop a way to give back to the community. Students worked and researched the best way to demonstrate this character trait. Students came up with the plan for the little food pantries and that the community and members of the school could collect donations/ fundraise to keep these boxes filled. With the help of community member, Derrick Arnold, this plan came to life. Derrick donated his time and materials to build two little pantries for the Miami Students. The students had a great time painting the boxes and adding their own personal touches. Miami R-1 School will be collecting food donations periodically throughout the school year. We ask that you take what you need and give back in any way that you can. If you are interested in donating, donations can be dropped off at Miami School, we will have a tub right inside the front door for donations. |
